Moist and easy one bowl muffins. These are packed full of a lemony filling and have a little dollop of glaze on top for the perfect balance of sweet and zingy. Mix only using a wooden spoon to prevent dense muffins!
Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 20 minutes
Servings: 6

Ingredients
  

  • 165 g Plain Flour
  • 110 g Granulated Sugar
  • 1 tsp Baking Powder
  • Zest of 1 Lemon
  • 65 g Melted Butter
  • 80 ml Milk
  • 20 ml Vegetable Oil
  • 1 Medium Egg
  • 1/2 tsp Lemon Extract Optional
  • 6 tsp Lemon Curd
For the Glaze:
  • 50 g Icing Sugar
  • 3 tsp Lemon Juice

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 200C/180C Fan/Gas 6. Line a 6 hole muffin tin.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the dry ingredients (flour, baking powder, lemon zest sugar and a pinch of salt).
  3. Make a well and add in the liquid ingredients (melted butter, milk, oil, lemon extract if using).
  4. Stir together very gently with a wooden spoon, until only just combined. Scoop 1 tbsp of batter into each lined muffin hole, reserving about half the batter in the bowl.
  5. Spoon 1 tsp of lemon curd on top of the batter for each muffin. Cover with remaining muffin batter.
  6. Bake for 18-20 minutes, until golden on top. Let cool on a wire rack before making glaze.
  7. Make glaze by combining icing sugar and lemon juice. It should be fairly stiff. Add more icing sugar/lemon juice to reach the consistency you like. Dollop onto each muffin, add a little lemon zest and serve!
