Stop making flat muffins! 🛑👇 SAVE this post because this 2-phase baking hack is the ultimate secret to those tall, bakery-style domes! 🧁✨
Did you know the secret isn't just in the batter, but in the OVEN TEMP? Here is how to do it:
🔥 THE BAKERY HACK:
1️⃣ Phase 1 (218°C / 425°F): Bake at high heat first! This rapidly expands the baking powder gases & creates steam, forcing the muffin to shoot up and form that perfect dome before the crust sets.
For small muffins: 5 minutes
For large muffins: 7 minutes
2️⃣ Phase 2 (180°C / 350°F): Drop the temp! This lets the center bake evenly without burning the top, leaving you with a fluffy inside and crispy top.
For small muffins: 10 minutes
For large muffins: 15 minutes
📝 INGREDIENTS (Makes 12 small or 9 large):
