Lemon Crumb Muffins


I've been wanting to try these Lemon Crumb Muffins from Taste of Home for quite a while but they kept getting bumped for whatever reason. I ended up with some extra lemons from another recipe so I finally gave them a try for this month's Muffin Monday.

I cut the recipe in half because I was low on sour cream and only had one Greek yogurt on hand. so I used 3oz of sour cream and  5oz lemon Greek yogurt.  I got 12 very large muffins and then I pulled out my Madeleine pan and got 12 of those too. 


Love the crumb topping on these! I chose not to glaze them but if I did I would use powdered sugar and not the granulated called for in the recipe, just personal preference.

Thanks so much to Stacy for hosting #MuffinMonday and to all the other amazing bloggers who shared recipes today, be sure to go check out what they made using the links down below!

  • 4 large eggs, room temperature
  • 3 ounces sour cream
  • 5 ounces lemon Greek Yogurt

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking soda and salt. In another bowl, combine the eggs, sour cream, Greek yogurt, butter, lemon zest and juice. Stir into dry ingredients just until moistened. Fill greased or paper-lined muffin cups three-fourths full.
  2. In a small bowl, combine flour and sugar; cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Sprinkle over batter.
  3. Bake at 350° for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool for 5 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks.
  4. If desired, in a small bowl, whisk glaze ingredients; drizzle over warm muffins. Serve warm.

  2. I think they look scrumptious and I always use powdered sugar for glazes.

Strawberry Pizzelles

Pizzelles are one of my favorite childhood cookies and I'm constantly looking for ways to put a new spin on them.  Since one of my favorite summer fruits is strawberries, I swapped out the vanilla in the original recipe with strawberry extract. 

Easy Stuffed Waffles with Sweet and Savory Fillings

Stuffed waffles are a fun twist on the classic waffle—crispy on the outside and packed with tasty fillings inside. I recently got a stuffed waffle maker, and I’m loving how it turns waffles into little pockets of deliciousness! The best part? You don’t need a strict recipe because this is a perfect “clean out the fridge” meal. Grab whatever leftovers or fillings you have on hand, stuff ’em inside, and waffle away! Here’s what I tried this time, but feel free to get creative and make it your own.
