These are my new favorite breakfast muffins. They are delicious served warm with a little Melt. You can also make them vegan by replacing the eggs with an egg replacer.
I love the tart of the lemon, and the texture that the Chia seeds add. Also, chia are full of fiber and Omega 3 Fatty Acids, which makes my Lemon Chia Seed Muffins a perfect healthy any-time treat!
