Notes
Oven temperatures will vary, so always check the muffins after 12 minutes and see what they need. They may be done or need a few more minutes.
Use good quality ingredients when making muffins and check the freshness of each ingredient.
Don't over-mix the muffin batter! It should have lumps in it.
