LEMON POPPY SEED MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F Coat muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray.
• In a large bowl, cream the butter and sugar until fluffy.
• Add the egg yolks, one at a time.
• Beat well after each.
• In a separate bowl, stir together the dry ingredients, poppy seeds, and lemon zest.
• With the mixer on low speed, add the dry ingredients to the creamed mixture, alternating two times with the buttermilk, then lemon juice, and then vanilla.
• Beat just until smooth.
• In another bowl, beat the egg whites until soft peaks form.
• Gently fold them into the muffin batter until blended.
• Spoon the batter into the prepared pan, 3/4-full.
• Bake at 350°F for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
• Cool for 5 minutes before removing to cool completely.
• I sometimes sprinkle the muffin mixture with sugar prior to putting in the oven just to add a little extra sweetness.

LEMON POPPY-SEED MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a standard 12-cup muffin tin with baking cups. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In a separate bowl, whisk together sugar, eggs, zest, juice, and milk. Whisk in butter. Stir wet ingredients into dry ingredients, until just combined. Stir poppy seeds into batter.
• Divide batter evenly between muffin cups, adding a scant 1/4 cup to each. Sprinkle with sugar and poppy seeds, if desired. Bake until tops spring back when lightly touched, about 20 minutes. Cool 5 minutes in pan, then transfer to wire rack to cool completely.

• In a standing mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, or with an electric hand-held mixer in a large bowl, cream the butter, zest, and 2/3 cup sugar until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Scrape down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Remove the bowl from the mixer. Stir in the poppy seeds.
• Fold the flour in 3 parts into the butter mixture, alternating with the milk in 2 parts, until just combined. Take care not to overmix the batter. Divide the batter evenly into the muffin tin and sprinkle the tops with sugar. Bake until golden brown, about 25 minutes. Cool muffins in the pan on a rack. Serve warm.

VEGAN LEMON POPPY SEED MINI MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and spray a mini muffin pan with non-stick spray, set aside.
• Combine the poppy seeds and soymilk in a small bowl. Set aside, stirring occasionally.
• Grate the lemons, obtaining 2 tbsp lemon zest. I highly recommend the Microplane Zester/Grater. It is worth the price and makes zesting a breeze. I suspect it will last a few lifetimes (at least).
• Make a "flax egg" by mixing the flaxseed meal with 6 tablesppons (1/4 cup PLUS 2 tbsp) hot water in a small bowl. Set aside, stirring occasionally.
• Whisk together the flours, wheat germ, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt, set aside.
• In a small bowl combine the lemon zest and sugar. Rub together, with your hands, until they are evenly mixed.
• In a large bowl combine the lemon-zest sugar, oil, applesauce, lemon juice, "flax egg" and the vanilla and almond extracts. Mix well.
• Add the flour mixture and the soymilk/poppy seed mixture in alternating batches, stirring after each addition (or, if using an electric mixer, add in alternating batches as the mixer is running). Do not over mix.
• Add dough to the mini muffin pan using a tablespoon (1 tbsp = 1 mini muffin).
• Bake 10-11 minutes, let cool in pan for two minutes and move to a wire rack to cool completely.
• For regular sized muffins, bake 18-25 minutes, or until a tester comes out clean (I haven't tried this yet; the time is approximate and my best guess).
• For a 9x5 loaf, bake 50-70 minutes until a tester comes out clean (I haven't tried this yet; the time is approximate and my best guess).
• OPTIONAL GLAZE: In a small bowl, mix together the powdered sugar and lemon juice. Using a pastry brush, lightly brush the glaze on the muffins. There should be left over glaze. Let the muffins cool completely and store in an airtight container.
