What is a puffin you ask? It's the best breakfast combination ever! It's a half pancake half muffin creation that will leave you gobbling them down. They're best when dipped in warm maple syrup with a cold glass of almond milk. These vegan blueberry lemon puffins are so airy and light yet sweet, with a lemony kick. Sprinkle some lemon zest on top to give an extra flavor burst!
