Recipe FAQ
Can I use any type of yogurt in the batter?
Yes, you can use either dairy or dairy-free yogurt. Just make sure it has high protein and fat content, as this affects the structure and moisture of the muffins.
How do I get tall muffin tops?
Bake at a high temperature first to quickly activate the baking powder and create a fast rise. Then, reduce the temperature to finish baking. Also, fill the liners to the top for extra height!
Can I freeze the muffins?
You can freeze the almond muffin base. However, for the best taste and texture, fill and decorate them just before serving.
