Tips for Perfect  Muffins

Grease well: These muffins can stick, so use plenty of oil or nonstick spray.

Cool completely before storing: Prevent excess moisture by cooling before refrigerating or freezing.

Use parchment liners: For easy cleanup and quick grab-and-go portions.

For nicely formed egg muffins: make sure the wells are really full before adding the egg. That helps them stay formed and not shrivel up.
