Brunch Tips -
Matters of Batter
Do not over mix muffin batter. Stir briefly until the dry ingredients are moistened, with a few small lumps. The result is a muffin with a high rounded crown.

Brunch Tips -
Cinnamon
Cinnamon can be purchased in dried form. Rolled sticks and ground cinnamon are the two most common products available to shoppers. Cinnamon should be stored in an airtight container and kept in a cool, dry location.
