It makes you want to jump back in the bed, pull the covers over your head and have a “do-over.” You know what I am talking about, right? When the alarm didn’t go off, the kids cannot get out of bed, the dog is running circles around you wanting to be fed and you cannot find your car keys? On mornings like those, I do not have time to make the kids breakfast. When I am in a hurry but want the kids to have something in their bellies, I just grab a container of make ahead, yummy in your tummy, lemon poppy seed muffins.

What I love about this recipe is it is easy peasy to make, either in the morning or the night before. These are an awesome back up plan the kids will gobble up and will ask for more. Hence the reason we usually have a handful of these ready to go…just in case! and you probably have most, if not all of the ingredients in the pantry or fridge. Oh, and they are super cheap to make compared to the grocery store bakery version! To make sure you get a perfectly cooked muffin that will fall right out of the muffin pan, you need the Cake Boss Deluxe Nonstick Bakeware 12-Cup Muffin Pan, Gray with Red Silicone Grips“>Cake Boss Deluxe Nonstick Bakeware 12-Cup Muffin Pan, Gray with Red Silicone Grips Another favorite we make with my Cake Boss muffin pan are my Skinny Meatloaf Cupcakes With Mashed Potato Frosting Recipe. The kids love them, they are easy to make and they are super cute too! This is a fun recipe to make for a kids sleep over!

*If you want to make a glaze, just mix up 1/3 cup confectioners sugar, 3 tablespoons of water and lemon juice to taste.

What do you make your kids for a fast and easy snack or breakfast option?
