It’s been a while since I’ve felt the inspiration to create new recipes, but with the warmth of early summer mornings returning and all the fresh fruit available, the inspiration is retuning. While the house was asleep this morning, I whipped these up and wanted to share!

These Blueberry Flaxseed Muffins are a simple, delightful treat and pair well with a cup of herbal tea for breakfast. They embody the juicy sweetness of fresh blueberries but also offers the nutritional benefits of flaxseeds, known for their rich omega-3 fatty acids and fiber content.

They were absolutely kid approved in our house!

  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 ½ teaspoon cardamom
  • ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg

Wet Ingredients:

  • ⅓ cup maple syrup
  • 2 large eggs or one (1) ripe banana
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
