  6. Spoon the batter into the muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full.
Baking
  1. Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until the muffins are golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  2. Remove from the oven and let the muffins cool in the pan for a few minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool further.
