"Muffins are awesome because, well, they&amp;#039;re basically cake for breakfast. How can you go wrong? The other great thing about muffins is that the flavor combinations are endless. When all that goodness comes in a portable, easy-to-eat package, it&amp;#039;s basically a breakfast trifecta. Here are a few tips to make your muffins especially perfect:  Don&amp;#039;t overmix the batter when you add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients. Stir until evenly mixed and just moistened.  Fill your muffin cups about three-fourths full with the batter. If you fill or overfill the tins, the muffins are more likely come out flat on top.  Allow muffins to cool 10 minutes in the pan before eating.  Fresh-baked muffins are the best kind of muffins, but you usually won&amp;#039;t eat a whole batch at once. To reheat leftovers, just put them in a 200\u00BAF oven for about 10 minutes and they&amp;#039;ll be back to their original, fresh-baked splendor!
