Honey Lemon Muffins


I’m really not a muffin person but I really like this recipe that comes from my friend Gina. It’s very light and a perfect side to serve with a spring salad.
I also doubled the drizzle on this because I like lot on mine. Always a sucker for the sweet stuff!

Serves 10.

Bon Appetit!
