Note

For best results, use smooth peanut butter for a consistent texture, but crunchy peanut butter can be used for extra crunch.

Do not overmix the batter after adding wet ingredients to dry; a lumpy batter ensures tender muffins.

Store cooled muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or freeze for longer storage.

If using a standard 12-cup muffin tin, increase baking time to 20-25 minutes.
