For an enhanced flavor, try browning the butter before creaming it with the sugar. This adds a nutty depth to the muffins.
If you don't have powdered buttermilk on hand, you can substitute with 1/4 cup of regular buttermilk, reducing the amount of water in the recipe by 1/4 cup.
Store these muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or freeze for longer storage.
A touch of orange zest or a pinch of ground cloves can add a lovely aromatic dimension to these muffins.
