Answer 1

Well it depends on the type of muffin you are making. The bread-like muffin batter is made using the "muffin method". This batter can be assembled and baked 'quickly', usually in 20-25 minutes. Only two bowls are needed to make the batter. One bowl is used to mix all the dry ingredients together. The second bowl contains all the wet ingredients. The fat used with the bread-like muffins is usually in liquid form, either an oil or melted butter. When the wet and dry ingredients have been mixed together separately, then they are combined. The important step here is not to over mix the batter. Mixing too much overdevelops the gluten in the flour which will cause a tough muffin with tunnels and a compact texture. Only 10 to 15 strokes are needed to moisten the ingredients and the batter should be still lumpy and you may still see a few traces of flour. Don't worry about these lumps as the batter continues to blend as it bakes and any lumps will disappear. The cake-like muffin batter is prepared using the same method as making a cake batter. The butter (room-temperature) and sugar are creamed together. The eggs are mixed in and then the wet and dry ingredients are added alternately. The higher sugar and fat content in this type of muffin act as tenderizers producing a richer cake-like muffin with a softer cake like texture. The increased fat content also minimizes the development of gluten which also helps to produce a muffin with a softer texture.

Answer 2

Usually the dry ingredients get mixed first, then the wet. While I wouldn't use milk and eggs and butter (I would use soy milk apple sauce or banana, probably banana so I could have banana muffins, and either Smart Balance spread or soy margarine), I believe it would be self-rising flour, the sugar, butter, milk and eggs in that order.
