LEMON POPPY SEED MUFFINS
Steps:
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and prepare muffin tins with 18 paper liners (this recipe makes about 18 to 20 muffins).
- Add the all purpose flour to a large bowl and whisk together with the sugar, baking soda, salt and poppy seeds.
- In a large liquid measuring cup, measure the milk and the oil.
- Add the sour cream and eggs, along with the lemon zest and juice, and whisk all the wet ingredients together well.
- Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix with a wooden spoon or spatula just until combined and no streaks of flour remain.
- Divide the batter between the 18 or 20 prepared muffin cups, filling them about 2/3 full with the batter.
- Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for about 20-24 minutes or until the muffins are a light golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the middle of one of the muffins comes out clean.
- Let the muffins cool in their tins until almost completely cooled.
- Whisk together the powdered sugar and lemon juice (add a few more drops of lemon juice, if necessary) to form a glaze.
- Brush the glaze onto the tops of the muffins and let the glaze set fora few minutes before serving.
