A muffin is a
sandwich
A little tidbit: a muffin is officially a sandwich. Now you might think that's strange because when you buy them in the Netherlands they look more like a cupcake. That's right. A muffin is baked in two varieties: the US one, which has a more cake batter and the English version (also widely eaten in America) which is a bit firmer in texture and less airy. More a stuffed bun. And then you can also make them sweet or savory.
But if you want to bake the muffin so delicious and light as possible, follow these few tips.
Tips for baking
muffins
- Do not make a smooth batter. Muffin batter should contain lumps. So do not whisk too long, just beat until all the ingredients are just moistened.
- Use paper tins. Of course you can bake muffins plain in the baking tin, but you will have to scrub your making plate and lets face it, which the gorgeous paper tins it even looks better. If you don't want to use paper tins, grease the baking mold in advance with some oil to prevent sticking.
- Use, if you have it, the conventional oven, that way your muffin dries out less. This recipe gives the correct temperature for baking in a conventional oven. If you only have convection, then reduce the temperature by 20 degrees Celsius and moisten the top of the muffins with a spray bottle with some water before you put them in the oven.
- Each oven is different. So check if the muffins are done after the specified baking time by pricking a  toothpick into the center of the muffin. When it comes out dry, the muffin is done.
- Always preheat the oven and don't open during baking. Therefore, the muffins may collapse and will loose its fluffiness.
It's a good taste!
