Honey Lavender Blueberry Breakfast Muffins

Today I’m sharing a fun recipe for Honey Lavender Blueberry Breakfast Muffins.  These muffins are honey-sweetened.  They are made using whole wheat pastry flour and almond flour.  Ingredients to look for include lavender extract and culinary dried lavender.  Blueberries are a great flavor compliment to lavender and add a subtle purplish tint to the batter. 

Some folks equate lavender taste and scent sensations with soaps and perfumes.  My palate is open to floral notes.  I grew up enjoying rose water in Persian delicacies.

Culinary lavender is sold in bud form.  I chop the lavender buds finely with a large knife.  The flower buds can also be ground in a food processor.

Some markets carry culinary dried lavender.  I was able to find some a couple of different places locally.  You can find lavender extract online.  I ordered it from Amazon.

It’s simple to garnish these muffins with a big, plump juicy blueberry on top.  

Add blueberry garnish for the last 5 minutes of baking.
