We're trying to add chia to our diet and picked up some milled chia flour at the store yesterday. Which begs the question, what do I add it to? It says you can add it to anything. I opted for muffins. After my success with the brownies, who knows, they might even taste good. I decided to use Brown Eyed Baker's recipe which you can find here. I really didn't make any major changes. I did cut back on the sugar to about 3/4 cup, added in a scoop of chia flour and instead of sour cream I used plain greek yogurt. And her blog was right, these were perfect. I loved the texture, the chia seeds were there, but no more noticeable than poppy seeds and they added a nice texture I thought. And these were very pretty muffins! I don't go to great pains to hide my blueberry swirls because I like the depth it adds, but that's just me. Feel free to dredge your frozen berries in flour first.
I'm off to have a muffin...or two. Like Brown Eyed Baker I have a muffin weakness!
