Easy Lemon Muffins
Starting today, and for the next while, I will be doing a series of recipe posts called “Manic Muffin Monday” As you probably have guessed, every Monday, a new muffin recipe will be posted! Today, it’s an easy recipe for Lemon Muffins!
Lemon Muffins
6 TBSP. Butter
1 Cup White Sugar
2 Eggs
1 1/2 Cups White Flour
1/2 Cup Milk
Grated zest of 1 1/2 Lemons
1/4 tsp. Salt
1 1/2 tsp. Baking Powder
Topping:
Juice of 1 1/2 Lemons
1/3 Cup White Sugar
Preheat oven to 400 farenheit. Grease muffin tins, set aside. In a bowl, cream together butter, sugar and eggs. Add in flour, milk, lemon zest, salt and baking powder, mix well. Spoon batter into the greased muffin tins, filling them 3/4 full. Bake in preheated oven for 15-20 minutes. Meanwhile, combine the lemon juice and sugar in a bowl. When muffins are baked, prick the tops with a fork, and drizzle topping over each muffin!

lemon is the best
Just made these muffins, and they are delicious.. However, I did add some extra touches such as a few drops of lemon juice (half a lemon) into the mix as I love a very lemony taste. Also when putting the muffin mixture in the tray I paused half way to add a tablespoon of warmed lemon curd (I used store bought Barkers, heated in the microwave).. and a table spoon of cream cheese! I moulded the the cream cheese into little disks ontop of the curd..then I poured on the other half of the muffin mix! Still had sugar syrup topping too, so you can imagine how rich these are. Delicious little treats though, only one needed!!
These muffins were amazing! They were incredibly soft and moist and super lemony! The drizzle just added a little more oomph to the taste, sort of making it a bit sweeter. They were absolutely phenomenal! Best lemon muffin recipe i’ve ever made!
ummmmmmm sorta forgot to add self raising flour so were quite rubbery…. silly me
My family LOVE it when I bake these muffins. Thank you so much for sharing this easy but very yummy recipe
