Quark Muffin

If you don't have paper cases, grease the muffin cups well and dust lightly with flour.

For especially fine muffins, sift the dry ingredients briefly.

The longer you beat, the lighter the muffin crumb will be.

Don't overmix, otherwise the muffins can become dense.

Fill the cases only about two-thirds full to prevent overflowing during baking.

Oven times vary—check a little early and test 2–3 minutes sooner if unsure.

Cooling on a rack allows even air circulation and prevents a soggy bottom.

Simple and South Tyrolean: dust with icing sugar or drizzle with a lemon glaze.
