Description

These bakery-style lemon poppy seed muffins with blueberries are so moist and are bursting with fresh lemon and blueberry flavor!


Ingredients

Units Scale
  1. 1 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  2. 1 cup finely ground almond flour
  3. 1 cup sugar
  4. 1/2 teaspoon salt
  5. 2 teaspoons baking powder
  6. 1/2 cup melted butter
  7. 2 eggs
  8. 1/2 cup milk
  9. Zest of 2 lemons
  10. Juice from 1 lemon
  11. 2 tablespoons poppy seeds
  12. 1 cup blueberries
  13. 1 tablespoon sugar for dusting

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees and line a muffin tray.
  2. Whisk the flours, baking powder, salt, and sugar together in a large bowl. 
  3. Pour in the melted butter and stir to combine.
  4. Add in the two eggs and stir to combine again.
  5. Add in the milk and stir to combine. 
  6. Add the lemon zest and juice, followed by the poppy seeds. Stir until the seeds have been evenly incorporated.
  7. Lastly, add in the blueberries and fold them into the batter.
  8. Fill the muffin tin almost all the way up with the batter.
  9. Dust with sugar and bake for 30 minutes or until the tops are golden and a knife comes out clean.  

Notes

  • Fill up your muffin tins almost all the way up with batter to get those wonderful domed bakery-style muffin tops. 
  • For crunchy muffin tops, sprinkle sugar over the muffins right before baking.
  • These muffins will keep for two days in an airtight container. 
  • This recipe uses fresh blueberries, but frozen would work as well. Just add the frozen berries right to the batter as you would the fresh berries.  
  • Use freshly squeezed lemon juice and zest to get the full lemon flavor!
