How to Make Cafe Style Muffin Cases

Making your own Muffin Cases is straightforward and gives muffins a professional finish without the cost. All you need is baking paper, a pencil and a ruler.

My local store ran out of muffin cases the other day, so I decided to make my own. It's way cheaper, and although it takes a little time, you can't tell the difference unless you look closely!

To Make 12 Muffin Cases

• Use a ruler to cut out 12cm x 12cm squares of baking paper until you have 12.
• Grease a 12 hole muffin tin with butter well. Or you could use oil spray, but I find that butter works the best.
• Place one piece of paper into one muffin cup, pressing firmly with your fingers along the creases - this can be a bit fiddly and requires a little patience to make them stick! If you have a round object that fits the hole to push them down even better.
• Scoop the batter into the cases and bake as usual. A great way to do this is with an ice cream scoop.

That's it! You now have 12 professional looking muffin cases!
