I tried to make 3 different versions of sweetcorn cheese muffins today for as snacks for my toddler.
All flopped!
What could have been the cause. Initially I thought the one recipe lacked enough dry ingredients as even thought the raw batter looks fine, they just didnt cook inside and flopped midway in the over after seemingly having risen quite a bit.
Second batch, the same, and now with the above recipe...

Hi,
Thanks for the comment. We suggest that you check the freshness of your baking powder and other ingredients, and also check that your stove is working properly.
As all three recipes flopped, we think that it's likely that there was something wrong with the ingredients or your stove.
