Notes

These muffins are best enjoyed warm, straight from the oven. You can eat them as they are or spread a little butter or cream cheese on top for extra flavor. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or freeze for up to 3 months. For extra sweetness, add chopped walnuts or raisins, or mix in spices like nutmeg or ginger for a different flavor.
