Additional Tips
- For extra bursts of flavor and texture, fold in a handful of pomegranate arils into the batter just before baking—this adds a juicy pop to each bite and enhances visual appeal.
- If you want a vegan version, replace butter with an equal amount of coconut oil or any neutral vegetable oil, and use plant-based milk as needed to adjust the batter's consistency.
- To deepen the jaggery’s caramel notes, gently warm it with a splash of pomegranate juice until just melted before adding to your wet ingredients—this creates a smoother mix and intensifies flavor.
- Store cooled muffins in an airtight container lined with a paper towel to absorb excess moisture and keep them fresh and soft for up to three days; these also freeze well for up to a month.
