    I love muffins! I actually made a batch of blueberry muffins yesterday afternoon with whole wheat pastry flour and while they looked and smelled terrific when I took them out of the oven, they completely fell apart when I tried to take them out of the pan. I let them cool for 5 minutes before removing, like the recipe said, but then they came out in pieces. And after they had cooled and I went to put them away, I found that they had completely dried out! Ugh!! I hate when something like that happens!

      Oh no! I think they should have been cooled longer than 5 minutes. I usually let mine sit for at least 15 minutes, maybe longer. Often times I bake them the day before we are going to eat them. They don’t fall apart when they come out of the pan when you do that. To make the muffins more moist, you could add some yogurt or mashed up bananas to the mix. For a more neutral flavor, add milk or non dairy milk such as rice milk. :) I hope you have better luck next time. Have good weekend!

Start the oven on high

Bake your muffins at 400°F for the first 5 minutes, then drop the temperature to the more standard 350°F for the remainder of the bake time. This method sparks the leavening agents (especially baking powder) in the batter to react quicker, creating that gorgeously risen top.

How to get domed muffins? ›

According to O. Corriher, the way to get a perfectly puffed up dome on your muffins is to increase your oven heat. She says that 400° should do it, no matter what the recipe says. The higher baking temperature means that the the outside edges of the muffin will set while the middle is still liquidy.

How can I make my cupcakes rise higher? ›

Place your cupcakes into a preheated 400 degree F oven, no matter what temperature the recipe calls for. Most cupcake recipes suggest 350-375 degrees F, which results in a flat top. When you increase the temperature, the edges of the cupcakes will solidify first, allowing the center to rise, creating a domed top.

Fresh baking powder and baking soda are crucial for providing the necessary lift to the muffins. Baking powder and baking soda lose their effectiveness over time. Make sure your leavening agents are fresh to ensure proper rising.
