Me watching Bake Off: They can't manage to make three different kinds of pastry on a tier cake with perfectly baked meringue? Pathetic.

Me pouring a boxed cake mix in a bowl: Haha, baking.

Lammas/Lughnasadh Blackberry Muffins with Oat Sunflower Seed Crumble Topping

So this year I unfortunately am not feeling too great. I usually go all out for pagan holidays, but this year with my fibro flaring and me being so overstimulated I'm acting all wild, I decided I shouldnt do anything too crazy. Plus.....I've been so stressed I pretty much forgot it even was lammas until the day before. Oops.

I still wanted to do something. So, I came up with a recipe that includes some ingredients usually used for Lammas. It's got sunflower seeds and oats, along with blackberries. All are apart of the harvest of Lammas. And muffins! They are apart of the bread group! I also added extra spice because my deity, cernunnos, LOVES spice. Figured it would only be fair to add a little extra just for him (and I love spice too) spice for luck, protection. Blackberries for Brigit, sunflower seed and oats for the harvest/ Lugh.

Muffins:

2 1/2 cups flour, all purpose

1 tbsp baking powder

1/2 tsp baking soda

1/2 tsp cinnamon

1/4 tsp cloves

1/4 tsp nutmeg

1/4 tsp ginger

Zest of one lemon

2 eggs, large

1 cup sour cream or plain greek yoghurt (I prefer sour cream as it gives a better flavor imo)

1 tsp milk, or water

1 cup white sugar

1 stick melted butter (8 tbsp)

1/2 tsp vanilla extract

1/2 tsp almond extract

1 1/2 to 2 cups fresh blackberries, cut in quarters (the bigger the cut the more it will fall to the bottom. Too small they will not be found in muffin. I put two cups as an option for more berry flavor. No more than this though or your muffins will not bake properly)

Crumble topping:

1/2 cup sunflower seeds, blitz to break up

3/4 cup oats, blitz to break up

3 tbsp flour

3 tbsp sugar (optional, I like mine a little less sweet personally)

4tbsp melted butter

Directions:

Preheat oven to 400° F. Line a 12 cup muffin tin with liners. This recipe makes around 18 muffins!

In a large bowl, whisk dry ingredients and fresh lemon zest to incorporate.

In another bowl, whisk your wet ingredients. Make sure the butter isn't too hot or the eggs will cook.

Add wet to dry and stir until just combined. Fold in blackberries. Do not overmix, if you do, the gluten in the flour will build up and make your muffins extra dense.

Meanwhile, combine blitz sunflower seeds, flour, oats, melted butter and sugar for crumble.

With a small cookie scoop (very small, not the regular sized ice cream scoop) place two scoops in each liner. The mix should be spread out and look as though it is just a little bit below the top of the liner. Top with crumble. Place the excess muffin mix in the fridge while they bake.

Bake for 17-20 min or until golden brown.

Enjoy warm with butter and make sure to offer some to your gods, as well as the fae. They seem to like when I offer blackberries.

You can also bury some of these as an offering to the earth.

I hope everyone has a wonderful lughnasadh this year!
