The first time I tried a lemon poppyseed muffin was when I created these Healthy Lemon Poppy Seed Muffins, and I now understand what I had been missing all this time. I've always personally been a boring bran muffin kind of girl, but now I'm a sassy, zesty lemon poppy seed muffin kind of girl, and I now have a lot more fun! These muffins are moist and packed with delicious flavor. Watch me make them below and share them with your friends and family!
How To Make Muffins Perfect Every time
Muffins are one of the easiest grab and go food, especially if you bake them in little muffin paper cups. You just peel and eat wherever, whenever! I've even mentioned before how easy they are to make. All you really do is combine everything, scoop into a greased muffin tin and they come out ready for on the go. With these muffins, you can't go wrong even if you adjust thee flavors. You like more lemon, up the lemon. You like more poppyseed, up the poppyseed. We've given you the perfect muffin base so you can honestly add any flavors to the base and come out with the perfect muffin every time.

Healthy Lemon Poppy Seed Muffins
To be completely honest, these muffins may look a little familiar if you've made another one of our recipes. We used the recipe from my all time favorite dessert, Olive Oil Cake, as the base for these muffins. The cake has a dense, moist, rich flavor that we knew would not only repurpose well for a great muffin, but would make the best healthy lemon poppy seed muffins!
