The Lemon Chia Seed Muffins are bursting with bright lemon flavor and the gentle pop of texture from chia seeds. They’re a sunshine-filled way to start your day!
I mean, lemon poppyseed muffins are fun and all, but why not boost that classic combo with some extra protein and omega-3s from chia seeds? I also swapped out half the all-purpose flour for almond flour for added protein and moisture. These muffins are tender and delicious, and I usually can’t eat just one!
They’re packing about 5 grams of protein each, making them a great balanced addition to a breakfast or snack. Because these little babies are so moist, they keep well for several days, but are best kept in the refrigerator to be safe. Make them for your breakfast this week, or as a fun weekend morning treat!
