Muffini od borovnica i limuna

Late autumn means the start of Citrus season, so this Friday I’m bringing you the recipe for this classic taste muffins, but with a zingy twist. Give them a go this autumn, to bring at least a bit of sunshine in your gloomy day.

TIP: you can use both fresh and frozen berries; if using frozen, place them in a collander to defrost first.

Kasna jesen označuje početak sezone citrusa, pa vam tako ovog petka donosim recept za klasične muffine, ali uz dodatak limuna postaju još sočniji i ukusniji. Probajte ih ove jeseni, da si bar malo zasladite ove tmurne dane.

SAVJET: možete koristiti i smrznute i svježe borovnice; ako koristite smrznute, prvo ih stavite u cjedilo da se odmrznu.

Spustite se dolje za hrvatsku verziju ;)
