Lemon Poppy Seed Muffins

Step 1

Preheat oven to 425F. Line a 12-cup muffin pan with paper liners.

Step 2

For muffins: In a large bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, and baking soda. Whisk in poppy seeds and salt.

Step 3

In another large bowl, combine sugar and lemon zest. Working with your hands, rub zest into sugar until fully combined. Add yogurt, milk, melted butter, eggs, lemon juice, and vanilla. Whisk until smooth. Pour into flour mixture and fold just until combined. (Batter will be thick.) Divide batter evenly among paper liners.

Step 4

Bake for 15 to 17 minutes or until tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs. Let muffins cool in pan for 10 minutes. Remove and finish cooling on a wire rack.

Step 5

For glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together powdered sugar and lemon juice until smooth. Drizzle over cooled muffins.
