Notes

Muffins can be stored in an airtight container, for up to 4-5 days. They will stay fresher longer, if you refrigerate them, and you can also freeze them for later too.

Do not overmix the batter, the muffins will come out dry if you do.

Greek yogurt may be substituted for sour cream .

Using butter AND oil, helps the muffins stay moist.

Olive oil or coconut oil can be substituted for avocado oil.
