I can’t believe it took me over eight years of writing this blog to post a recipe for Lemon Poppy Seed Muffins! These easy-to-make muffins will please just about everyone at the breakfast table.
As you know, I try to minimize the sugar in my recipes as much as possible. This time, I found the muffins actually need the full 1/2 cup of maple sugar to taste just right. I tested them with 1/3 cup of sugar and although the muffins tasted nice, we could barely detect the lemon. So, I recommend keeping the exact amounts listed if want the muffins to actually taste like lemon poppy seed.
