Spoon the batter into cupcake tins lined with muffin papers. Fill each cup to the brim. Bake in a preheated 350° F oven for 35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin is withdrawn clean. Cool the muffins in the pan for 10 minutes, then turn out and finish cooling on a rack. These muffins need 24 hours for ripening to develop their full flavor. They also freeze extremely well.
