Decoration Tips:
While these muffins are scrumptious on their own, a sprinkle of coarse sugar on top before baking adds a delightful crunch and a bakery-style finish. For a festive touch, a simple glaze drizzled over cooled muffins or a dollop of whipped cream can elevate them for special occasions. Garnishing with fresh blueberries and mint leaves also enhances their visual appeal and freshness.
