Anyone ever make muffins using those muffin tops pans? I want to get one, but DH says they can't possibly make a soft muffin top.

Description
These muffins were easy to make. It also has only one kind of "special" flour. We tasted one and it was rather good!
Ingredients
| 3 | bananas | |
| 2 | eggs | |
| 1⁄2 | c | raw sugar (used granulated) |
| 1⁄2 | c | organic peanut butter |
| 1 3⁄4 | c | brown rice flour |
| 2 | t | baking powder |
| 1 | t | baking soda |
| 1⁄4 | c | vegetable oil |
| 1⁄2 | c | buttermilk (sour milk) |
| 1⁄2 | c | mini-chocolate chips |
Instructions
Mash Bananas and put into a medium size bowl. Add eggs, sugar, and peanut butter (I used Smuckers Organic chunky) and beat with electric mixer until combined. Add remaining ingredients. Mix well.
Pre-heat oven to 350 F. Recipe says to put paper liners in muffin tins and fill to top. I sprayed with non-stick spray and filled the mini-muffin pans. Made 3 dozen mini-muffins. Bake for 12 to 13 miutes (until firm to touch) Cool and serve.
Notes
Note: If dairy products are a problem, substitute 1/2 cup rice milk mixed with 1 teaspoon lemon juice and use dairy-free chocolate chips.
I made a few changes from original due to what was on-hand. Recipe = white rice flour (used brown);Recipe = raw sugar (used granulated); Recipe = 1/3 cup butter or shortening (melted) (I used 1/4 cup vegetable oil)

No soft muffin top. It's the crunchy part of the muffin. Yum-o. Why else would they make a pan that specifically only makes the 'top' if that wasn't the part everyone really wants and suffers thru the soft 'stem' part to get to?
i never heard of these pans!
It's a great episode.....here are the related parts

We have made gluten-free bread and it has been a big hit. We have even used it in special little baking dishes for our overnight french toast and the people needing the special treatment seem very pleased.
THANKS SO MUCH!
My pleasure. It is my hope that B & Bs will stock the flours necessary for gluten-free. I keep mine in the bread drawer of my 1950s kitchen sink unit with no problems. You do not need a lot on hand. It really is not a big deal to make that loaf of bread or special batch of muffins - the bread was raising while I did the muffins (while the oven was pre-heating). I do not think it took an hour all together. The only problem with gluten-free is that gluten is found in things one would never think of.
