- Add the dry into the wet and using a spatula, gently fold until a soft batter forms.
- Evenly divide the batter between 12 liners. They should be all the way full. Using a cookie scooper helps big time to minimize the mess. Sprinkle. a handful of streusel on top of each muffin.
- Bake the muffins at 425℉ for 5 minutes, then reduce the temperature to 375°F for 20-25 minutes in regular liners. That initial 5 minutes at 425℉ will give the muffins a tall muffin dome. The muffins are ready when a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
