These lemon muffins are packed full of citrusy goodness. They are a delicious breakfast or snack option for people who love lemons.

Ingredients:

• 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 2 tsp baking powder
• 1/2 tsp baking soda
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 2 lemons, zest and juice
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
• 2/3 cup plain yogurt
• 2 large eggs
• 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions:

Preheat your oven to 350F 175C

In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt

In another bowl, whisk together the melted butter, yogurt, eggs, lemon zest, lemon juice, and vanilla extract

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined

Be careful not to overmix

Line a muffin tin with paper liners and fill each cup about 2/3 full with the muffin batter

Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean

Remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely

Once cooled, you can optionally dust the muffins with powdered sugar or drizzle with a simple lemon glaze for extra flavor
