Lemon Poppy Seed Muffins
Do you remember this Youtube video? It’s gotten more than 22 million views! And I think its because its hilarious and everyone loves muffins!
I mean..
Many people have shared that they have been disappointed with muffins, because they are too dry or dense.
Here are my tips for muffin making:
- Start with ingredients at room temperature (eggs, milk, yogurt).
- Use yogurt in your muffins to ensure they are moist.
- Do not overmix your batter! Combine the wet ingredients and sift together the dry ingredients before mixing the two together.
- Sprinkle the tops with turbinado sugar for a crunchy top
- Use cupcake liners for easy clean up.
I used Noosa Yoghurt’s Lemon Yoghurt in my lemon poppy seed muffins. You can locate Noosa retailers here.
