These are delicious! I added 1 cup of grated zucchini and substituted chia for the poppy seeds and it didn’t affect the texture. Baked at 325 degrees for 20 minutes. Always a hit with everyone who tries them.

Really tasty muffins. Substituted chia seeds for poppy seeds and added about 1/2 cup finely shredded zucchini. Definitely will make again.

I found the batter dense- so I added another lg test. Greek yogurt, and a sash of Buttermilk to thin it out a little. Also grated some lemon peel into batter- amped up lemon flavor. Very tender, tasty!!
