Ingredients

For the muffin:

  • 2/3 cup granulated sugar
  • zest of 2 lemons
  • 3 cups gluten-free flour blend
  • 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2 tbsp poppy seeds
  • 6 tbsp fresh lemon juice (from 2 medium lemons)
  • 1 3/4 cup almond milk
  • 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 tsp vanilla

For the glaze:

  • 3/4 cup powdered sugar

Instructions

  • Combine the granulated sugar and lemon zest. Rub the zest into the sugar for a few minutes until the sugar is very fragrant.
  • Combine lemon sugar with the gluten-free flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and poppyseeds. Stir to combine.
