I really wanted to love these...the pictures are great! But, I was wondering if it's possible the recipe is wrong? I followed it exactly, but the batter ended up much more like pizza dough than muffin batter...it was so thick I couldn't stir it. So, I added more liquid ingredients to make it more like an actual muffin batter, but that obviously messed up the chemistry and they were dense and tasteless. Maybe the "batter" is supposed to be more like a dough? It just doesn't look that way in the pictures. I'd love to know how to fix this, because they do look so tasty!
First thing to try: watch our video on measuring flour, because this is usually the issue when a batter or dough is much thicker than it should be. Also - did you use large eggs? And did you use all-purpose flour, not bread flour? If you measured your flour using the "sprinkle and sweep" method, and answered yes to both of these questions, please call our baker's hotline, 802-649-3717 - they can help. PJH
