Day 254: Sugar Free Lemon Poppy Seed Muffins

Today I've put up a new poll questionnaire, this time about puddings! Which is your favorite pudding of the four? The poll will end on 10th of December, perfect for a winter dessert!

But before we go full out on winter, I'm bringing back a classic from the summer. I know, I shouldn't be using lemon in fall, but I couldn't resist making these light fluffy, lemon poppy seed muffins!

I do seem to be baking muffins all the time now! I've really grown to like them, they're fluffy in the middle and have a crackly top.

To have these beautiful domed tops, you want to fill these muffins to the top. Even a smidge over the top will be fine!

These muffins are moist, and soft. They are packed with a zesty lemon flavor, and specks of poppy seeds.

STEPS:

  1. Preheat your oven to 425 degrees F and line two muffin tins with cupcake liners.
