Ingredients
  

  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon poppy seeds
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • cup vegetable oil
  • 1 large egg
  • Zest of 1 lemon
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • Optional: lemon glaze for topping

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, poppy seeds, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  • In another bowl, combine the buttermilk, vegetable oil, egg, lemon zest, and lemon juice.
  • Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, and mix until just combined.
  • Do not overmix; it's okay if there are a few lumps.
  • Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full.
  • Bake for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  • Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack.
  • If desired, drizzle with lemon glaze once cooled.
  • Enjoy your freshly baked muffins warm or at room temperature!
