Line muffin tin with parchment muffin liners, or coat with oil or cooking spray. Fill muffin tin with batter. Bake for 25 minutes for mini muffins, or 30-40 minutes for large muffins. They are fully cooked when a toothpick or bamboo skewer comes out clean. Let cool on a cooling rack before serving. Cool completely before freezing.
Makes about 5 dozen mini muffins, or 30 large muffins.
