Before you begin

Read the whole recipe, then get these ready.

  • 12-hole muffin tin
  • Paper liners
  • Two bowls
  • Spatula

Muffin batter should stay a little lumpy. Overmixing makes the crumb rubbery.

Ingredients

Original recipe weights. Small quantities stay in measuring spoons; eggs stay as counts. 1 kg = 1,000 g.
