Servings: 12 Muffins
Calories: 184kcal

Ingredients

  • 2 cups flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons poppyseeds
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice from 1 large lemon
  • 1 tablespoon lemon zest
  • 1 cup plain Greek Yogurt
  • 2 large eggs room temperature
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1/4 cup butter melted

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400 F. Grease a muffin tin with cooking spray or place muffin papers in 12 cups.

  • In a separate bowl, whisk together lemon juice, lemon zest, Greek yogurt, eggs, honey and melted butter.
  • Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients just until mixed. If you overmix, your muffins will be more dense.

With Brian being allergic to nuts (not peanuts) we stay away from many of your latest suggestions. 🙁 I’m nervous to even let Kyler try any form of nut, besides peanuts. Bummer.
