Lemon Lime Sesame Muffins

I had a couple of lemons and limes sitting around and wanted to do some baking on a cloudy and muggy sunday morning. The best things ever are muffins, quick and easy made and good to share with many people.


I found some different recipes on google and read one from "Kitchn", that gave me the idea. Sesame and lemon sounded good, but I went for a less sweet, a bit tangy and on the healthier side muffin.

recipe:
2 1/2 cups flour
1/2 cup  coconut flower sugar
1/2 cup toasted sesame seeds
1 tbsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 extra large egg
2 lemons zested
1 lime zested
1/2 cup double cream
3/4 cup milk
1/2 lime juiced

syrup:
lemon and lime juice
3 tsp Xylit sugar
12 half dried raspberries
12  half dried blueberries

Preheat the oven 175 C
Toast the sesame seeds in a dry pan
In a big bowl combine the dry ingredients
In a small bowl combine the wet ingredients and pour them into the bigger bowl. Mix up well, but don´t overmix.


Use a 12 muffin tin and place paper cups in, fill up and press a raspberry and a blueberry on top.
Bake for 20 minutes


In a small pan heat the juice with the Xylit sugar and cool down.
Use a toothpick and prick some holes in the fresh baked muffins and pour some syrup over them.
