These days, the number one dinner starch I crave is lemon muffins. Of almost any kind. I made these once before, and I'm trying them again tonight (but with honey instead of sugar). They were kind of biscuity, which I liked, and I left out the blueberries and upped the lemon/zest content (it's the lemon I'm after).
If you have lemon muffin recipe recommendations, please send them along. I'm in need.
BLUEBERRY MEYER LEMON MUFFINS
- 3 cups flour (mix of white and wheat works as well)
- 1 Tbsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup sour cream (or greek yogurt)
- 1 cup yogurt
- 2 eggs
- 1/3 cup canola oil
- zest of 2 Meyer lemons (or regular lemons)
- 1/4 cup juice from Meyer lemons (or more!)
- 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries (can omit if necessary)
Preheat oven to 350. Grease a muffin pan or line with muffin cups.
In a large bowl combine the sugar, sour cream, yogurt, egg, oil, and
lemon juice. Add the dry ingredients and gently stir till just
combined. Fold in the zest and the blueberries. Scoop into a standard
muffin pan, about 1/4 cup of batter per muffin cup. Bake at 350 for
25-30 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
Devour warm with a little butter or at room temperature.
