Mini-Muffin Tins
ini-muffin tins are great when baking for children’s parties and any occasion where you want an assortment of small treats. While the profiles of regular and mini-muffin tins are the same, the number of cups they contain (12 and 24 cups, respectively) differs. We chose nine models and baked mini muffins and almond financiers in each; our favorite tins had several traits in common. First, they were made from steel, which retains and disperses heat well, and produced evenly browned baked goods. Second, the smaller, narrower shapes of their cups gave us perfectly proportioned muffins and cupcakes.
