Yule is a magickal time filled with warmth, love, and joyful festivities. And these will be a Β perfect addition to your Yule morning breakfast or tea time treat. These eggnog muffins are simple to make, flavourful, and of course festive!
Yuletide Baking
Yule takes place on the Winter Solstice and is the shortest day of the year. This is a time of rest, rejuvenation, and rebirth within nature and within ourselves as well. Also a time where we can indulge a little more and just simply be and enjoy ourselves.Β
Yule is a big Sabbat for baking; cookies, cakes, gingerbread, and of course muffins shouldn’t be left out of the mix. Baking is an excellent way to feel cozy inside our homes, connect with our inner kitchen witch, and embrace the long nights that the winter holds. Not to mention, a wonderful way to share that festive holiday cheer.Β

Preparation
- Preheat oven to 350 and line or grease your muffin pan.
- Stir together oats and eggnog in a large bowl and allow to sit for 10 minutes.
- Then mix up your flax egg and set aside to thicken.Β
- After the 10 minutes, add in all wet ingredients and your flax egg into the eggnog oat mixture. Mix to combine.
- In a separate bowl mix together all dry ingredients.
- Now add your dry ingredients into the wet and stir until all ingredients are combined.
- Fill your muffin tins about 3/4 of the way full.
