Variations

Want to make this recipe gluten-free or vegan? No worries! Here’s how: 🌱

Gluten-Free: Substitute the regular flour with a gluten-free flour blend. Make sure the blend you choose contains xanthan gum or a similar binding agent to keep the texture of your muffins intact.

Vegan: Replace the eggs with flax eggs (1 flax egg = 1 tablespoon of ground flaxseed mixed with 3 tablespoons of water). For the butter, use a plant-based butter alternative or coconut oil. Veganizing these muffins is as easy as that! 🌿

Faq

  • Why are my muffins not rising?

    This can happen if your baking powder is old. Make sure it is fresh to ensure your muffins rise beautifully.

  • Can I add other fruits to the batter?

    Absolutely! Feel free to add blueberries, chopped apples, or even some nuts for added texture and flavor.

  • How do I store these muffins?

    Keep them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. You can also freeze them for longer storage.

  • My muffins are too dense. What went wrong?

    Over-mixing your batter can make your muffins dense. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.

  • Can I use brown sugar instead of white sugar?

    Yes, brown sugar will add a lovely caramel flavor to the muffins, but it may also make them a bit more moist.

  • How can I make my muffins prettier?

    Sprinkle some oats, nuts, or coarse sugar on top before baking for an attractive finish. You can also use muffin liners for a cleaner look.
