Do not overmix: Mix the wet and dry ingredients just until incorporated to keep the muffins soft.
Use fresh passion fruit: Fresh pulp gives the muffins a brighter and more natural passion fruit flavor.
Measure the flour correctly: Avoid packing the flour into the measuring cup, as too much flour can make the muffins dense.
Preheat the oven: Make sure the oven reaches 180°C before placing the muffins inside.
Check for doneness: Insert a toothpick into the centre of a muffin. It should come out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
Allow them to cool: Let the muffins cool for a few minutes in the pan before transferring them to a cooling rack. - Frequently Asked Questions
