Espresso and muffins

Another gelato from the Bruce Weinstein book....Espresso Gelato

I absolutely love this darn book!!!!

These are Yogurt Honey Muffins and the recipe comes from the book in the picture below. I had some yogurt expiring on Sunday and I try not to waste anything. Luckily I bought this book from the thrift store and it contained a recipe perfect for my needs. I changed the lemon to lime juice since I had some fresh squeezed already in the refrigerator and I didn't worry about the zest.
