I learned of this recipe while on my honeymoon. My husband and I took a cooking class, which I highly recommend doing with your significant other or even just a friend. It was really nice to have an activity date night that wasn't just dinner and a movie (not that there is anything wrong with that) and we learned something to boot! The class taught my husband a healthy and flavorful salmon recipe that he could easily cook. As well, the class gave me great inspiration for recipes like these morning crunch muffins.
These breakfast cakes are low sugar, high-protein, flavor packed and Paleo Diet-Friendly! Added bonus, they are great for making ahead of time and freezing each cake individually wrapped (a perfect breakfast on the go).
