- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will make your muffins tough. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the muffins at a high temperature. Baking the muffins at a high temperature will help them to rise and brown properly. Bake the muffins at 400°F for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
- Serve the muffins warm. Parmesan cornmeal muffins are best served warm. You can reheat them in the oven or microwave if you need to.
