To kick off my heart healthy series – I present you with these delicious and nutritious blueberry lemon muffins. I tried to make these last week and the lemon flavor was barely present and they were a little bitter (believe me I still ate them… there’s nothing that almond butter cannot fix).

This time around, I concentrated more on the lemon flavor instead of the blueberry – and WHALA – I was left with a super moist lemony blueberry muffin.

I love these as a quick morning bite with my cup of coffee. Not only do they have a decent amount of protein, but they also have 4g of fiber. Plus, they’re low fat!

Some healthy benefits among their main ingredients include:
Blueberries: Not only are blueberries a great source of fiber, but they have been shown to help reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease.
Oats: Oatmeal, oat bran, oat flour, barley, and rye may all reduce the risk of coronary heart disease (CHD), so eat up!
Honey: A natural sugar that is a natural prebiotic and can help with digestion.
Lemon: Citrus fruit may reduce the risk of coronary heart disease, some types of cancer, and help to neutralize free radicals in our bodies.

Try making these on a Sunday to have a grab and go breakfast choice the rest of the week.

Enjoy!
