Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: Fresh ingredients will give your lasagna muffins the best flavor and texture. 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 cups evenly: Fill each muffin cup about 2/3 full. This will prevent the muffins from overflowing.
  • Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This will ensure that the muffins are cooked through.
  • Let the muffins cool before serving: Let the muffins cool for at least 5 minutes before serving. This will help them to hold their shape.
