After missing a couple Sundays, then having somewhat of a recipe fail last week with the banana fritters, I was happy to see Lemon Pistachio Cornmeal Muffins on the schedule for Baked Sunday Mornings this week. Why? Because I had made them right after I got Baked Elements and loved them! In fact, this rarely happens with baked goods, but I think I may have eaten more of them than my husband.
I don't always like the grittiness of cornmeal, but I think it works really well in these muffins with the combination of ground-up pistachios in the muffins and the larger chunks of nuts on top.
These muffins are definitely worth a try, especially right now during citrus season. You can find the recipe here on the Baked Sunday Mornings site and click here to see if the other bakers liked these muffins as much as I did.
Your muffins that great. Love the pics of them. I'm so glad I tried them. I love lemons and adding that to cornmeal just really worked!
ReplyDeleteI made them twice and shared with friends to get the word out about how good these muffins are! :o)
I love finding a keeper recipe! Looks wonderful!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty muffins! I think this recipe is a keeper too!
ReplyDeleteI don't do pistachios, but the combination of the lemon and cornmeal sounds fantastic! Gotta love when a recipe comes up in the rotation and you've already made it :)
ReplyDeleteCongrats to the 49ers for their win tonight! I'll definitely be cheering for you guys when you play the Ravens!
I agree, the cornmeal-ground pistachio mixture was a nice surprise...it works really well. Your muffins are very pretty and I also agree, they are hard to resist.
ReplyDeletePicture perfect! Glad you liked them. :)
ReplyDeleteThese really were addictive! I gave some to my brother to keep from eating all of them.

ReplyDeleteI enjoy the texture of cornmeal. This sounds like a fun twist on a cornmeal muffin.
