Ingredients
3 cups all purpose flour
2 cups granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon poppy seeds
4 eggs
1 cup sour cream
3/4 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup milk
2 tablespoons lemon juice
zest of one lemon
Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and prepare muffin tins with 18 paper liners (this
recipe makes about 18 to 20 muffins).
2. Add the all purpose flour to a large bowl and whisk together with the sugar, baking soda, salt
and poppy seeds.
3. In a large liquid measuring cup, measure the milk and the oil.
4. Add the sour cream and eggs, along with the lemon zest and juice, and whisk all the wet
ingredients together well.
5. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix with a wooden spoon or spatula just
until combined and no streaks of flour remain.
6. Divide the batter between the 18 or 20 prepared muffin cups, filling them about 2/3 full with
the batter.
7. Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for about 20-24 minutes or until the muffins are a light golden
brown and a toothpick inserted into the middle of one of the muffins comes out clean.
8. Let the muffins cool in their tins until almost completely cooled.
9. Whisk together the powdered sugar and lemon juice (add a few more drops of lemon juice, if
necessary) to form a glaze.
10. Brush the glaze onto the tops of the muffins and let the glaze set fora few minutes before
serving.
Notes
These muffins can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days, and they freeze well in an
airtight container for about 2 months.
