Ingredients

Servings

For the Blueberry Lemon Poppy Seed Muffins:

  • 3 cups all-purpose flour plus 2 tablespoons, divided
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 8 tablespoons unsalted butter 4 ounces, at room temperature
  • 1 granulated sugar 1/3 cup
  • 3 teaspoons lemon zest; finely grated
  • 2 egg large, at room temperature
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract pure
  • 1 cup sour cream full-fat
  • 1/3 cup lemon juice freshly squeezed
  • 3 Tablespoons poppy seeds
  • 1 blueberries 1/2 cup

For the Lemon Glaze:

  • 1 confectioners' sugar 1/2 cups, sifted
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice freshly squeezed
  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest; finely grated
  • 2 teaspoons whole milk more if needed to achieve desired consistency

Instructions

For the Blueberry Lemon Poppy Seed Muffins:

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees (F). Line a 12 cup muffin tin with paper liners; set aside.
  2. In a large bowl, sift together 3 cups of the flour, baking powder, and salt; set aside.
  3. In a large bowl using a handheld electric mixer, or in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine the butter, sugar, lemon zest, and vanilla extract; beat on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.
  4. Add in the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition and scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
  5. Turn mixer off and set batter aside for a moment. In a spouted bowl or measuring cup add the sour cream and lemon juice; whisk well to combine and set aside. In a separate bowl combine add the blueberries and remaining flour; toss well to coat the berries in the flour.
  6. With the mixer speed on low, alternate adding the flour mixture and the sour cream mixture, beginning and ending with flour. Be sure not to over mix here. Fold the blueberries and poppy seeds into the batter, mixing just until evenly combined.
  7. Divide the batter evenly among prepared muffin tins.
  8. Bake for 25 to 27 minutes, or until the tops are lightly golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean, or with a just a few moist crumbs attached. Cool muffins 10 minutes in the pan before transferring to a cooling rack.

For the Lemon Glaze:

  1. In a medium mixing bowl combine the confectioners' sugar, lemon juice, zest, and milk; whisk until smooth, adding more milk as needed to reach desired consistency. Drizzle over the muffins right before serving.
