Lemon poppyseed cupcakes

Lemon poppyseed cupcakes

Ingredients- 

  • 225g self-raising flour
  • 175g golden caster sugar
  • zest 2 lemons
  • 1 tbsp poppy seeds , toasted
  • 3 eggs
  • 100g natural yogurt
  • 175g butter , melted and cooled a little
  • Lemon sugar 

Instructions- 

  • Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4 and line a 12-hole muffin tin with cupcake or muffin cases.
  • Mix the flour, sugar, lemon zest and poppy seeds together in a large mixing bowl. Beat the eggs into the yogurt, then tip this into the dry ingredients with the melted butter.
  • Mix together with a wooden spoon or whisk until lump-free, then divide between the cases.
  • Bake for 20-22 mins until a skewer poked in comes out clean – the cakes will be quite pale on top still.
  • While the cupcakes are still warm, dust with lemon sugar.
