I enjoy anything that has citrus in it especially lemon! So I was anxious to try this recipe for lemon muffins. The original recipe doesn't call for poppyseeds, but I think lemon and poppyseeds combined is a great combination so I decided to add some in. If you love muffins you will love this recipe!
Lemon Poppyseed Muffins:
- 1/4 cup butter or margarine, softenend
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 Tbsp lemon juice
- 1 egg
- 3/4 cup plus 1 Tbsp flour
- 3/4 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1/2 tsp lemon zest
- 1 tsp poppyseeds (optional)
In a medium bowl, cream together butter, sugar, lemon, juice, and egg. Sift together dry ingredients. Alternately add dry ingredients and milk to make a thick batter. Stir in lemon zest and poppyseeds. Spoon into paper lined muffin tin (2/3 full) or a loaf pan. Bake muffins at 350 degrees for 10-15 minutes or until golden brown. Bake loaf at 325 degrees for about 30 minutes. Just before the muffins or bread comes out of the oven, combine syrup ingredients in a medium saucepan.
Syrup:
- 2 Tbsp lemon juice
- 1/4 cup sugar
