Lemon Yogurt Muffins

Summer is in the air so I figured what would be better than a lemon yogurt muffin with a cold glass of juice? This recipe is from Company's Coming Mostly Muffins. My mom gave me the book for my 22nd birthday this year and I've finally found the time to thumb through it and mark down my favourite recipes to try!

These muffins were super easy to make and relatively inexpensive. I have a huge supply of baking ingredients so all I needed to pick up were eggs, milk and a packet of lemon pudding powder.

After combining the dry ingredients in one bowl and the wet in another, I mixed them together and got this mixture that resembled scrambled eggs in the muffin tins! I've never put my muffins in cupcake liners but I didn't have any butter to grease my pan with so I adjusted. For future reference, I'd never make muffins in cupcakes liners again, they just don't have the same appeal!

Bake them in the oven for 20-22 minutes until you can insert a toothpick and it comes out clean!

 This was my first time using my oven at my new apartment so I burnt the tops of them and the bottoms of them are burnt to the cupcake liners. Now that I know how my oven works I'll have a better understanding for my next baked goods!

Overall the recipe was easy. Muffins are one of my favourite snacks, even though mine will never be as delicious as the one's my mom makes. So easy to whip up and good paired with fruit, cheese or yogurt. My Mostly Muffins book will have plenty of recipes posted here because there are just too many good ones to pass up!

The recipe is below! :)
