“The best muffin I’ve ever had.” – Mama Rose Table Never have I ever had a more perfect muffin and believe me, I am a muffin snob. I didn’t think that my holy grail of muffins, my Chocolate Chocolate Chip Muffins could be beat, but yesterday I tried that recipe with a cinnamon streusel topping…

Lemon Poppy Seed Muffins
Lemon poppy seed was my favorite muffin flavor when I was young. (Well okay, not including chocolate chocolate chip muffins of course but those were really for special occasions, not an everyday breakfast.) I finally tried my hand at them and was thrilled with the results! This muffin is delicate, soft, and bursting with lemon…

Want the perfect fall snack? Bake my pumpkin muffins! I’ve been baking these for years and finally wrote the recipe up for you.

Coconut Muffins

I first ate this perfect morsel of coconut goodness at beautiful Montpelier Plantation and Beach on the Caribbean island of Nevis. I loved them so much that I begged my friends at Montpelier to give me the recipe,…
