Notes
My recipes have been developed and tested in metric grams. I highly recommend using a weighing scale and measuring out your ingredients the metric way.
I make sure that all of my ingredients are at room temperature before I start the recipe, so pull out all of the ingredients about 2 hours before you start baking.
Salt: If you don't have kosher salt, halve the amount of salt called for in the recipe. 1 teaspoon kosher salt = ½ teaspoon fine salt. I'm using Diamond Crystal Kosher Salt and not Morton Salt which is too salty for this!
Sour Cream: if you don't have sour cream, use full-fat yogurt or Greek yogurt.
Storage: keep in an airtight container at room temperature for 2 days, or in the fridge for five days.
Freezing: freeze baked and cooled muffins in a freezer bag. Let them thaw in the fridge or at room temperature.
