It\u2019s a funny reaction between the baking powder and the sunflower seeds, and an acid like vinegar or lemon juice helps to prevent it.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<div id=\"zlrecipe-container-391\" class=\"zlrecipe-container-border\" >\n<div id=\"zlrecipe-container\" class=\"serif zlrecipe\">\n  <div class=\"recipeRating\"><div id=\"post-ratings-45099\" class=\"post-ratings\" data-nonce=\"ce963e7e63\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"rating_45099_1\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/asweetlife.org\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-postratings\/images\/asweetlife_stars\/rating_on.gif\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" onmouseover=\"current_rating(45099, 1, '');\" onmouseout=\"ratings_off(3.8, 4, 0);\" onclick=\"rate_post();\" onkeypress=\"rate_post();\" style=\"cursor: pointer; border: 0px;\" class=\"lazyload\" \/><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"rating_45099_2\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/asweetlife.org\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-postratings\/images\/asweetlife_stars\/rating_on.gif\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" onmouseover=\"current_rating(45099, 2, '');\" onmouseout=\"ratings_off(3.8, 4, 0);\" onclick=\"rate_post();\" onkeypress=\"rate_post();\" style=\"cursor: pointer; border: 0px;\" class=\"lazyload\" \/><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"rating_45099_3\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/asweetlife.org\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-postratings\/images\/asweetlife_stars\/rating_on.gif\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" onmouseover=\"current_rating(45099, 3, '');\" onmouseout=\"ratings_off(3.8, 4, 0);\" onclick=\"rate_post();\" onkeypress=\"rate_post();\" style=\"cursor: pointer; border: 0px;\" class=\"lazyload\" \/><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"rating_45099_4\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/asweetlife.org\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-postratings\/images\/asweetlife_stars\/rating_half.gif\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" onmouseover=\"current_rating(45099, 4, '');\" onmouseout=\"ratings_off(3.8, 4, 0);\" onclick=\"rate_post();\" onkeypress=\"rate_post();\" style=\"cursor: pointer; border: 0px;\" class=\"lazyload\" \/><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"rating_45099_5\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/asweetlife.org\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-postratings\/images\/asweetlife_stars\/rating_off.gif\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" onmouseover=\"current_rating(45099, 5, '');\" onmouseout=\"ratings_off(3.8, 4, 0);\" onclick=\"rate_post();\" onkeypress=\"rate_post();\" style=\"cursor: pointer; border: 0px;\" class=\"lazyload\" \/> (<strong>17<\/strong> votes, average: <strong>3.82<\/strong> out of 5)<br \/><\/div><div id=\"post-ratings-45099-loading\" class=\"post-ratings-loading\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/asweetlife.org\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-postratings\/images\/loading.gif\" width=\"16\" height=\"16\" class=\"post-ratings-image lazyload\" \/>Loading...<\/div><\/div>\n  <div id=\"zlrecipe-innerdiv\">\n    <div class=\"item b-b\">\n\n                    <div class=\"zlrecipe-print-link fl-r\">\n                      <a class=\"butn-link\" title=\"Print this recipe\" href=\"javascript:void(0);\" onclick=\"zlrPrint('zlrecipe-container-391', 'https:\/\/asweetlife.org\/wp-content\/plugins\/asl-recipes\/'); return false\" rel=\"nofollow\">\n              Print            <\/a>\n                  <\/div>\n      \n      <div class=\"zlrecipe-yummly-button fl-r\">\n        <a href=\"\/\/yummly.com\" class=\"YUMMLY-YUM-BUTTON\">Yum<\/a>\n        <script src=\"https:\/\/www.yummly.com\/js\/widget.js?wordpress\"><\/script>\n      <\/div>\n\n            <div id=\"zlrecipe-title\" itemprop=\"name\" class=\"b-b h-1 strong \" >Flourless Chocolate Chip Muffins<\/div>\n    <\/div>\n\n        \n                      <p id=\"zlrecipe-ingredients\" class=\"h-4 strong\">\n        Ingredients      <\/p>\n    \n                \n                \n    <ul id=\"zlrecipe-ingredients-list\">\n                        <li class=\"ingredient no-bullet\" itemprop=\"recipeIngredient\">\n            1 1\/4 cup sunflower seed butter.
