Mimosa muffins are cute treats that can be made for Women’s Day but are also perfect at other times 🙂

Spring is approaching even though it’s a bit peculiar because a lot of snow has arrived in the mountains and it feels like the height of winter.

This morning I had some free time and since the breakfast dessert was finished, I decided to try these lemon cream-filled treats.

They are simple to prepare and very suitable for serving even on special occasions 😉

Of course, they are butter and egg-free, making them suitable for those with intolerances.

I tried mimosa muffins for the first time and instantly liked them.

The batch I made is for 12 large muffins or 24 small muffins.

Now I’ll give you the recipe to try them right away.
