4) Scoop the batter into the prepared pan, filling each cup 
three-quarters full. Sprinkle tops of muffins with coarse sparkling 
sugar, if desired.

5) Bake the muffins for 15 to 18 minutes, till they're set and a 
light golden brown.

6) Remove the muffins from the oven, and let rest in the pan for 5 
minutes before turning out to cool completely on a rack. Serve warm.
