Notes
When combining the wet and dry ingredients, be careful not to overmix the batter. Over-mixing can result in dense muffins. Stir just until the ingredients are combined.
Let the batter sit for a few minutes before baking. This helps the flour absorb the liquid fully and allows the baking soda to activate, resulting in fluffier muffins.
The combination of wheat flour (atta) and all-purpose flour (maida) creates a perfect balance between texture and flavor. If you prefer a healthier muffin, you can increase the amount of wheat flour.
Preheat your oven properly and bake the muffins at 180°C (350°F). A preheated oven ensures even baking and helps the muffins rise well.
Oil vs. Butter: While oil is used in this recipe for moisture, you can use melted butter for a richer taste. However, oil keeps the muffins soft for a longer time.
Check for Doneness: Always check the muffins by inserting a toothpick or skewer into the center. If it comes out clean, the muffins are ready. If it has some wet batter, bake for a few more minutes.
