  • If you don't have jalapeños, you can substitute another type of chili pepper, such as serrano peppers or cayenne pepper. Adjust the amount of pepper to taste.
  • Be sure to grease the muffin tins well before filling them with batter. This will help prevent the muffins from sticking.
  • If you want to make sure the muffins are cooked through, insert a toothpick into the center of one of the muffins. If it comes out clean, the muffins are done.
  • These muffins are best served warm, but they can also be stored at room temperature for up to 2 days or in the freezer for up to 2 months.
