Passionfruit Pound Cake Muffins
Need a passionfruit recipe? Passionfruit Pound Cake Muffins are airy, lightly sweet and full of tropical flavor. My new favorite recipe! They’re sweet, but not too sweet, so they make a great dessert and snack, but also work for a breakfast treat. The texture is like a light fluffy pound cake, and you can even make this recipe into a traditional pound cake loaf. And after much deliberation, I decided to keep the seeds in the mix, and they honestly make the whole recipe in my opinion. They add a perfect light crunch that is absolutely addicting!
