- 1 cup plain, unflavored yogurt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 2 cups organic blueberries, fresh or frozen
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
- In a small bowl, mix chia seeds and hot water and allow to rest, this will form a gel.

- While the honey and oil are melting, mix the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and lemon zest in a large bowl.
- In another bowl, whisk together the melted honey and oil, yogurt, chia mixture, and vanilla.
- Add dry ingredients to wet and mix only 10 times, do not over mix!
- Add blueberries and stir 3 more times (this batter will be thick, almost like cookie dough).
- Generously butter muffin tins with soft butter, then fill tins with batter.
- Bake 20 to 25 minutes, until lightly browned on top.
- Serve warm with a touch of real butter and enjoy!
