HERE'S WHAT YOU NEED FROM US TO GET STARTED
⬇⬇⬇
INGREDIENTS
(makes 1 serving)
- 1 1/2 cups of whole wheat flour
- 1 Tbsp. baking powder
- 1 1/4 Tbsp. Matcha
- 1/2 tsp. salt
- 3/4 cup Cotton Honey
- ¾ cup unsweetened almond milk, or regular milk
- 2 tsp. Vanilla Extract
- 1/4 cup oil
- 1 egg
- juice of 1 lemon ( 1/4 cup of juice)
- ½ tsp. lemon zest
Lemon Drizzle (Optional)
- ½ cup Honey
- 1-2 Tbsp. fresh lemon juice
INSTRUCTIONS
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
- In a large bowl, combine flour, baking powder, matcha, and salt. Set aside.
- In a medium bowl, mix together milk, Cotton Honey, Mexican Vanilla, egg, oil, lemon juice, and lemon zest.
- Add wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until combined, but be careful not to over-stir. Over-stirring will result in tough, dense muffins.
- Add muffins liners to muffin tins or spray tins with non-stick cooking spray.
- Distribute the batter evenly into the muffin tins and bake for approximately 12-15 minutes, or until fork comes out clean.
- Optional: For lemon drizzle, mix slightly warmed honey and lemon juice until desired consistency. Drizzle lightly over muffins!
Appease your sweet tooth.
