 I have two amazing recipes that I have made and loved!

First up, Lemon Poppy Seed Muffins!

(original recipe from sally's baking addiction)

Ingredients

2 and 1/3 cups all-purpose flour

3/4 cup granulated sugar

3 tablespoons poppy seeds

2 teaspoons baking powder

1/4 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup salted butter, melted

6 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

1 teaspoon lemon zest

1/4 cup water

2 large eggs

1/2 cup non-fat yogurt

1/4 cup milk, at room temperature

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 425°F. Line one muffin tin with cupcake liners (personally, I think the recipe is more for 15 muffins, not 12.)

2. Mix the flour, sugar, poppy seeds, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl. Set aside.

3. Mix the melted butter, lemon juice, lemon zest, and water in a medium size bowl. 

4. Add the eggs, mixing after each addition. 

5. Whisk in the yogurt and milk.

6. Mix the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Don't over-mix. The batter should be lumpy.

7. Bake for 5 minutes on 425°F, then lower the heat to 375°F and continue to bake for 12 minutes.
