Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 2 tablespoons Poppy seeds
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter, melted
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 cup Milk
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with muffin liners or lightly grease the cups.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and poppy seeds. Whisk together until well mixed.
Step 3
In a separate medium-sized bowl, whisk together the melted unsalted butter, eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and lemon zest until smooth and well combined.
Step 4
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently with a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
Step 5
Evenly distribute the muffin batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about three-quarters full.
Step 6
Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Step 7
Remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool in the tin for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 8
Serve the muffins warm or at room temperature, and enjoy your low sodium treat!
