This recipe makes 6 large muffins or 12 small muffins. Don’t fret if you don’t have a smaller muffin pan — if you make muffins half the size, you can eat twice as many for the same amount of calories! However, half the size does not equal half the time — if you are making bigger muffins you’ll bake them for about 25-30 minutes, but smaller muffins will be closer to 20-25 minutes. Set a timer, but the best way to tell your muffins are done is by using the tried and true “toothpick method” — just stick a toothpick in the middle of the highest part of a muffin. If you can pull it out with no visible wet batter or overly sticky crumbs, it’s done.
