Raspberry Oat Muffins with Honey Butter

Raspberry Oat Muffins with Honey Butter are a healthy, scrumptious treat perfect breakfast or as a snack! 

How do you say no? 

Because I can’t. 

Every few weeks an email burps up in my inbox with “up to 75% off Kate Spade merchandise!” Of course, I open said email subconsciously thinking I won’t buy a single item. BUT! When I see a certain backpack is $200 off, well, I tell myself that’s too good of a deal to pass up. CLICK.

The messed up part about all of this is that I am not the biggest Kate Spade (god rest her soul) fan. I mean her stuff is cute, but I’m more of Marc Jacobs kind of gal. But Marc’s products are never on sale. Hello, Marc! Get your sh$t together. 

Do you have the same problem? I hate passing up a good deal and maybe that’s how they have me by the purse handles. Anyway, in case you are dying to know I did purchase said mini black backpack and it arrives sometime this week. 

Besides trolling through Kate Spade on sale inventory, I have been productive believe it or not. Hence how these Raspberry Oat Muffins with Honey Butter came to fruition. I was craving something sugary, but realized I needed something a bit healthier than a strawberry doughnut in the morning. What I love about these muffins is that they incorporate minimal sugar and used old fashioned oats as the base.

I love the tartness of raspberries, but you could certainly sub in blueberries, strawberries or blackberries. These muffins are fluffy and moist. Plus with the addition of the honey butter you can’t go wrong. It kind of feels like eating dessert for breakfast. In which case I always eat two….okay, three. 

Now, should I buy the black Kate Spade tote?
