  • Whisk together all the wet ingredients well.

  • Pour the batter into the prepared muffin tins, and top with a sprinkling of the sparkling sugar.

Notes

Pop day old muffins in the micro for 20 seconds to revive that amazing aroma. They’re special enough for office potluck parties, especially in winter when a cozy muffin is everything. Freeze muffins for up to 3 months.
