Ingredients
  • FOR THE MUFFINS
  • 2 c. all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp. kosher salt
  • 1 tsp. baking powder
  • ½ tsp. baking soda
  • ½ c. (1 stick) butter, softened

  • FOR THE GLAZE
  • ¾ c. powdered sugar

Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350° and line a muffin tin with liners. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, salt, baking powder, and baking soda.
  2. In another large bowl, using a hand mixer, beat butter, sugar, and lemon zest together. Scrape down sides and add eggs and beat until combined, then add almond extract. Add dry ingredients and beat until just combined, then add yogurt and lemon juice beating until just combined. Scrape down sides and stir in poppy seeds.
  3. Divide batter evenly between muffin liners, filling them nearly full and bake until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean, about 20 minutes. Let cool.
