Notes

For a more nutritious twist, you can replace half of the all-purpose flour with whole wheat flour. To enhance the flavor, consider adding a handful of nuts or raisins to the batter. These muffins can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or frozen for longer storage.
