2. Fundamentals
2 & ½ Cups All-purpose
Flour
1 & ¾ Teaspoons of
Baking Powder
¼ Teaspoon of Baking
Soda
1 Cup of Granulated
Sugar
2 Large Eggs - At room
temperature
1 and ½ Teaspoons of
Lemon Zest
¼ Cup of Lemon Juice
¼ Cup of Milk
1 Stick of Unsalted
Butter
(Optional) Powdered
Sugar - For sprinkling on
the finished product

3. Get Prepared – First to do
First step is to preheat
the oven to 350 degrees
Grease your muffin tin -
either 6 muffins or an 18
count miniature muffin tin
Gather a medium size bowl
(8” deep) & a more modest
bowl
Separate wet & dry
ingredients

4. First step!
Do not mix sugar in this step!
The first thing to do is combine your dry
ingredients in the medium mixing bowl
Whisk the dry ingredients until blended

5. And then…
Now, add the sugar to that second bowl
Add in the rest of the ingredients
Whisk that mixture until blended
Then add the whisked mixture to the medium
bowl and combine all the ingredients
Mix until just combined
*Do not over mix – mixture will become glutinous

6. And then…
Now add the batter evenly into
the muffin tins (1/4 cup for
regular, a tablespoon for
miniature)
Sprinkle with powdered sugar
if desired

7. Final step
Bake until the tops spring back when lightly
touched - usually 20 minutes
Let cool
*Good tip for finding out if muffins are done,
stick a straw in the muffin, if no batter is on it
when you pull it out, it’s done.
