Lemon poppy seed muffins are such a crowd-pleaser, and this simple recipe will be no exception.  I love a good muffin with a delicious and thick pat of grass-fed butter.

The smell of these muffins baking on a slow Saturday morning is divine and comforting.

This recipe also gets a two-thumbs up from both my kids!

Our favorite way to devour these muffins is sliced with a generous pat of grass-fed butter, and a drizzle of delicious raw honey.

Happy eating!
