Do you ever get an urge to spend an entire day in the kitchen, baking for hours? I'd say the hankering comes on once a month for me, and I have to bake everything from scratch. Although, this time around I took it one step further and decided to make up my own recipe for muffins. I would like to introduce you to my honey lemon chia seed muffins!
We've made it to February and I am STILL being more health-conscious, because these muffins are dairy-free and have no refined sugars. I used coconut oil to substitute for butter, and they somehow still taste buttery. It's a miracle! These honey lemon chia seed muffins aren't overbearingly sweet either, which is a great option for those of you who don't like sugar in the morning.
Honey Lemon Chia Seed Muffins are bright and cheery for breakfast
Now, muffins can be a bit tricky. If you stir them too much, they are really tough, so make sure you just barely mix everything until it is wet and leave it at that. That's the big secret.
I chia a whole lot of these muffins in your breakfast future. Grab the recipe below, and enjoy!
