Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). (5 minutes)

02

Step

Spread millet on a baking sheet. (1 minute)

03

Step

Bake in the preheated oven, stirring often, until toasted and fragrant, about 10 minutes. Remove from oven and cool. (15 minutes)

04

Step

Increase oven temperature to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease 12 muffin cups. (3 minutes)

05

Step

In a large bowl, whisk together the toasted millet, flour, cornmeal, poppy seeds, 3 tablespoons sugar, lemon rind, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. (5 minutes)

06

Step

In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, honey, canola oil, egg, and vanilla extract. Gently stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined. Be careful not to overmix! (3 minutes)

07

Step

Pour batter into the prepared muffin cups; sprinkle 1 tablespoon sugar over batter. (2 minutes)

08

Step

Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean and tops are golden, 12 to 15 minutes. (15 minutes)

09

Step

Let cool in muffin tin for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. (10 minutes)

For a richer flavor, use brown butter instead of canola oil.
Toasting the millet is crucial for bringing out its nutty flavor and preventing a mushy texture.
Feel free to substitute other types of seeds, such as sesame or sunflower, for the poppy seeds.
Add a handful of fresh or frozen blueberries for a burst of fruity goodness.
These muffins are best enjoyed fresh, but can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
