Notes
I like A LOT of Puppy Seeds in my Muffins, but you can obviously decrease the quantity of poppy seeds if you would prefer a lighter muffin. I recommend to use at least 2 tablespoons, and up to 1/4 of a cup (which is how much I used here)
These muffins will be a bit delicate when they come out of the oven so I highly recommend using Muffins Liners. You may struggle to remove them from the muffin pan directly if you do not use the paper cases.
