- Use Fresh Ingredients: The fresher your ingredients, the better your stuffing muffins will taste. If possible, use organic or locally-sourced ingredients.
- Don't Overmix the Batter: Overmixing the batter will make the muffins tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Fill the Muffin Tins Properly: Fill each muffin tin about 2/3 full. This will prevent the muffins from overflowing.
- Bake the Muffins Until Golden Brown: The muffins are done baking when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
