2. To ensure that your muffins have that typical 'dome' shape when they come out of the oven, be sure that the muffin trays or paper cases are 2/3 full of cake mixture. It is advisable to line the muffin trays with paper cases so that they may be removed easily from the baking tray without cracking.

Try some gluten free and vegan apple muffins, some gingerbread muffins or blueberry muffins.
