The gas that makes holes in muffins is carbon dioxide. It is produced during the fermentation process when yeast or baking powder reacts with moisture and heat. This gas forms bubbles in the batter, causing it to rise and create the characteristic texture of muffins. As the muffins bake, these bubbles expand and contribute to the light and airy structure.
