Joghurette Muffin

If you don't have a muffin tin, double up the paper cases so they stand more securely.

When well chilled it's easier to cut cleanly and less likely to melt on your fingers.

This lightly coats the pieces in flour so they are less likely to sink while baking.

Buttermilk shouldn't be ice-cold; slightly warmer buttermilk mixes more evenly into the batter.

Don't overmix, otherwise the muffins become firm instead of fluffy.

An ice cream scoop or two spoons makes filling the cups especially neat.

Skewer test: only a few moist crumbs should cling, no wet batter.

On the rack the bottoms won't become soggy and stay tender.

Joghurette pieces or a light icing pair particularly well with these.
