I’m always on the look out for simple and easy to make recipes. So when I seen these muffins over on Dan and Meredith’s blog, Haggis and The Herring. I knew I wanted to make them right away. Not only is a yummy muffin and coffee one of my favorite breakfasts, this recipe is incredibly quick and easy to whip up, and uses ingredients I pretty much always have on hand. Plus I have a bottle of poppy seeds that I use for our favorite ham and cheese sliders, and nothing else. So I was excited to find another recipe that I could use them in.
Allow the batter to rest a few minutes before filling the muffin tins. This will help the tops rise into a nice crown.
Ingredients
- 2 eggs
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup poppy seeds (I only had 2 tablespoons to add, and they still came out great)
- 1 cup sour cream or yogurt
- grated rind and juice of 1 lemon
- 2 cups flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
Directions
- In a medium size bowl, cream together the eggs, butter and sugar. Stir in the poppy seeds, yogurt, lemon rind and juice and mix well.
- Place the flour, baking soda and baking powder into a seperate bowl, and blend well with a whisk.
- Stir the dry ingredients into the creamed mixture, and mix until incorporated. Do not over mix.
- Pour into a greased or paper cup lined muffin tin, and bake at 425 degrees for 15-20 minutes. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean when they are done.

Wow, the muffins look beautiful! I'm glad you enjoyed making them. And thanks for caring about our poor, orphaned blog :-)
Thank you Dan! : ) You and your wife's blog is far from poor, and your assignee missed out on some great recipes.
I love lemon poppyseed anything. These look awesome. Thanks so much for sharing at Must Try Monday. It's great to have you and hopefully I'll see you back next week.
Super muffins. I found this through Turning the Clock Back's What's Cooking Wednesday. I have linked in a post about some home-made steak burgers I did. Have a lovely week.
I love muffins and I have not had lemon poppy seed in a long time. Looks great and thanks for linking. Smiles, Sarah
Wonderful muffins and very beautiful ones:)
You know lemon poppyseed muffins are what I always look for when I see a selection of muffins, but for some reason I can never find them. So I might need to try you recipe out and just make my own.
This looks like another winning recipe! I would be honored if you would put these n my new parade of muffins linky!
Thank you Nicole. : )
