Regular Muffins -  Distribute the batter between 8-10 regular muffin liners and bake at 375°F for about 15-20 minutes.
Add a Glaze - if you like a glaze on your poppy seed muffins, you can definitely add one! Simply mix 1 cup of powdered sugar with 2 tablespoons of milk or orange juice and drizzle over the muffins.
