You'd be an April Fool not to make these...

Why the 'White House'? According to Food & Wine the chef, Spike Mendelsohn, was inspired by the new beehive in the White House garden! 
My dad and I just love muffins...
This was again a simple recipe and we made them on Sunday morning for breakfast. Despite all the honey they weren't too sweet (my mum thought they weren't sweet enough) but they tasted good with jam and my dad tried some with nutella and some with almond butter. We used oat bran instead of rolled oats, but I think rolled oats would have tasted much nicer: more flavour and more of a bite.
These aren't the big, sweet, crumbly Starbucks kind of muffins. But they're cute, soft and open to any topping :)
Honey-Oat Muffins
From Food & Wine

Active time: 20 mins
Total time: 45 mins
Makes: 12 muffins
  1. 3/4 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
  2. 3/4 cup whole-wheat flour
  3. 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  4. 2 teaspoons baking powder
  5. 1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
  6. 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  7. 1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
  8. 3/4 teaspoon salt
  9. 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons honey
  10. 1/2 cup buttermilk (or 1/2 tablespoon vinegar mixed into 1/2 cup milk)
  11. 1/2 cup canola oil
  12. 2 large eggs


  1. Preheat the oven to 375°. Coat a 12-cup muffin pan with cooking spray. In a large bowl, mix the oats with the whole-wheat flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, coriander and salt.
  2. In another bowl, whisk the honey with the buttermilk, canola oil and eggs. Pour the honey mixture into the dry ingredients; mix just until combined.
  3. Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin cups and bake for about 18 minutes, until they're golden and a toothpick inserted into the center of the muffins comes out clean. Let the muffins cool in the pan for about 5 minutes, then transfer them to a rack. Serve warm or at room temperature.
MAKE AHEAD The muffins can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. NOTES One serving 226 cal, 30 gm carb, 11 gm fat, 1 gm sat fat, 4 gm protein, 2 gm fiber.
