Lemon Chia Seed Muffins Recipes

Steps:

• Mix 2 cups flour, 1/2 cup sugar, 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon chia seeds and 1/2 teaspoon each baking soda and salt. In a separate bowl, whisk 3/4 cup each milk and vegetable oil, 2 eggs, 1 tablespoon lemon zest and 1 teaspoon vanilla; fold into the flour mixture. Line 12 muffin cups with paper liners; coat with cooking spray. Add the batter; bake at 350 degrees F until a toothpick comes out clean, 20 to 25 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Grease 2 muffin tins lightly with cooking spray.
• Mix flour, sugar, almond milk, 1 cup plus 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, eggs, chia seeds, almond extract, vanilla extract, baking powder, and salt together in a large bowl. Scoop batter into the prepared muffin tins.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and tops are light golden in color, about 40 minutes.

Steps:

• For the muffins: In a small bowl, stir together the chia seeds with 2 tablespoons of the lemon juice and 1/4 cup warm water. Set aside for the seeds to bloom, 15 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or spray with nonstick cooking spray.
• In a medium bowl combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. In a large bowl, whisk together the sugar and lemon zest. Whisk the sugar into the flour mixture.
• In another medium bowl, whisk together the yogurt, oil, remaining lemon juice and vanilla extract. Add the liquid ingredients to the dry and stir until just combined. Then stir in the bloomed chia seeds. Using an ice cream scoop, divide the batter between the muffin cups. Bake for 15 minutes, rotating the pans halfway through. Cool completely on a wire rack.
• For the glaze: Stir together the confectioners' sugar, honey and lemon juice. Drizzle over the cooled muffins and serve.
