- To make sure your muffins are moist, don't overmix the batter. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- If you want your muffins to have a golden brown crust, brush the tops with a little milk before baking.
- Store leftover muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the freezer for up to 2 months.
