MY NOTES
* To "fold in" an ingredient means you should gently and gradually add it in, a little at a time, using a spatula (the rubber scraper thing) to make horizontal sweeping motions, or mix it turning the spatula in the ''figure of 8''.
** You do NOT want to dump the flour in all at once and mix it roughly or haphazardly, this would make the muffins tough or chewy.
