Lemon-Raspberry Muffins
A festive holiday treat!
Ingredients
1 lemon
1/2 cup sugar
1 cup nonfat buttermilk, (see Tip)
1/3 cup canola oil
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup white whole-wheat flour, or whole-wheat pastry flour (see Shopping Tip)
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups fresh or frozen (not thawed) raspberries
Directions
Preheat oven to 400°F. Coat 12 large (1/2-cup) muffin cups with cooking spray or line with paper liners.
Use a vegetable peeler to remove the zest from the lemon in long strips. Combine the zest and sugar in a food processor; pulse until the zest is very finely chopped into the sugar. Add buttermilk, oil, egg and vanilla and pulse until blended.
Combine whole-wheat flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a large bowl. Add the buttermilk mixture and fold until almost blended. Gently fold in raspberries. Divide the batter among the muffin cups.
Bake the muffins until the edges and tops are golden, 20 to 25 minutes. Let cool in the pan for 5 minutes before turning out onto a wire rack. Serve warm.

Look Beautiful for the Holidays!
‘Tis the season to spruce up your beauty routine! Holiday season 2015 is here and it’s action-packed! Do you have parties and work functions to attend all month long? To help you look your very best this season, we’ve selected the must-have facial treatments so you can show off your flawless complexion at every occasion!
Check out these results-driven treatment options to get beautiful skin for the holidays:
- Chemical peels work below the skin surface to reduce and rid your skin of damage. This treatment is a great way to exfoliate the skin and enhance tone and texture. There are various types of chemical peels to choose from depending on your specific concern. Your esthetician can help you select the peel that’s best for your skin. We specialize in VI PEELS, PCA peels and organic facial peels.
- Microdermabrasion is a noninvasive exfoliation treatment that removes dead, damaged surface skin to expose healthy, radiant skin. It is a painless procedure that firms and tones the skin. It can be tailored to target specific concerns, including sun damage, discoloration, fine lines, wrinkles, and more.
- Botox is a purified protein molecule used for cosmetic purposes. It works by interrupting the messages that the brain sends to the muscles through the nerves, stopping the muscles from reacting. This allows the skin to remain smooth and wrinkle free. It is most commonly used on the upper area of the face around the eyes and between the eyebrows to reduce frown lines. In short, Botox makes you look younger.
- Juvederm is an injectable dermal filler for moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds, such as nasolabial folds (lines from the nose to the corners of the mouth). It adds temporary volume and a smoother appearance, usually in just one treatment. Results last 9-12 months.
Enhance these treatments with effective at-home care.
- Cosmeceuticals
To get desired results, you need to use skin care products that you trust, such as our incredible PCA skin care line, that are recommended by licensed estheticians. To effectively improve the appearance and health of your skin, it is imperative that you commit to both the in-spa and at home care regimen yourSo Lux team designs for your specific needs.
Reserve your complimentary consultation so your esthetician can recommend the best treatment combination for your skin!
Wishing you a happy holiday season!
