Lemon Blueberry Muffins

January 14, 2017 | Posted in Recipes

If anything can get us out of bed and moving in the morning, it’s the smell of homemade blueberry muffins baking from the kitchen. As much as we love the classic blueberry muffin recipe that was a staple of many of our childhoods, we were inspired by our newest color, Daffodil, to add some lemon zest to our concoction. The tart lemon gives this recipe an extra layer of flavor, which is so tasty.

These muffins are a great way to start your day, especially when you’re on the go and need something quick and delicious to grab on your way out the door (if made in advance, of course). We used fresh blueberries in our batter, but frozen will work just as well, especially if you want to save your fresh berries for garnish!
