  11. Leave to cool for 15 minutes before removing from the cases.

Pink Lady® top tip

For melt-in-the-mouth muffins, be sure to work the muffin mixture gently and leave any small lumps. Over-mixing will produce rock hard muffins! It is recommended to use a spatula to mix the muffin mixture. This affordable kitchen utensil can be bought in any general store.
