I have been craving Lemon Poppy Seed Muffins for a while now and decided to find a recipe that I could use as a starting point. The muffins should be light and flavorful. Perhaps next time I will add a little lemon juice to the batter for a bit more punch.
Lemon Poppy Seed Muffins
1 1/2 cups of spelt flour
1/2 cup of whole grain spelt flour
(the original recipe calls for 2 c all-purpose flour)
1 Tbs. poppy seeds
1/4 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 cup of unsalted butter
1 scant cup of sugar
2 large eggs
1/2 pkg of Citro Back by Dr Oetker or zest of one lemon
1 cup of regular plain yogurt
1 tsp. vanilla
Lemon Glaze:
1 tsp. butter, melted
powdered sugar
lemon juice, adjust to how thick you want the glaze
Sift the dry ingredients together and set aside.
Blend the sugar and butter until smooth, add the rest of the ingredients and blend well. Add the dry ingredients, folding them into the batter until just combined. Do not overmix at this point.
Fill into a cupcake pan which is lined with paper. Bake at 375 F for 18-20 minutes. Let them cool about 10 minutes and drizzle with lemon glaze.
