Lemon Lavender Muffins
Glaze
Steps
1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2
Pulse the sugar, lavender, and lemon zest in a food processor until smooth. The goal is to break down the lavender. Set 1/4 cup aside.
3
Beat the 1/2 cup sugar, butter, and eggs until fluffy. Beat in honey, almond milk, lemon juice, and vanilla. Stir in dry ingredients gently until just combined.
4
Pour the batter into a prepared muffin tin (I just greased mine, no liners). Bake for 20 minutes or until golden and the tops spring back when you touch them.
5
Whisk ingredients together for glaze. Pour a spoonful over the top of each muffin and sprinkle with reserved sugar.
Notes
If you want to make this totallydairy-free, you can use yourfavorite butter substitute.
If you are sensitive to the flavor of lavender, use one teaspoon instead of two, or put the sugar mixture through a fine strainer to remove the larger pieces of lavender.
Don’t overfill the muffin tins unless you want goofy little tops like mine have.
