Recipe – Smoked Salmon, Dill & Lemon Muffins
Smoked Salmon, Dill & Lemon Muffin
The weather lately has been so grey and dull, highlighting the fact that we are in the middle of winter here in the UK. This is so typical for mid-February!
But cheer up, Spring is on its way. It won’t be long before the daffodils and crocuses are pushing through the ground to let us know the weather is going to soon warm up!
Nothing says Spring like smoked salmon, dill and lemons and they combine really well to make these easy yet delicious muffins.
These muffins would go really nicely with a cold glass of champagne at your next get together with family and/or friends.
Try making them yourself at home and they will reassure you that Spring is indeed on it’s way!

Because these muffins are really basic you could swap out the salmon, dill and lemon and perhaps use cheese, ham and parsley!
