NOTES
Measure accurately: For the best results, use exact measurements. A kitchen scale really comes in handy for baking.
Don't overmix: Mix until the ingredients are just combined to avoid tough muffins.
Use room-temperature ingredients: Make sure the wet ingredients are all brought to room temperature to ensure your ingredients blend together perfectly.
Fill the muffin cups: Don't fill more than ⅔ of each cup to allow space for rising.
Don't overbake: Keep a close eye on the muffins during the final minutes of baking. Overbaked muffins can quickly become dry.
