Lemon Poppy Seed Muffins

Let’s cook tender muffins with poppy and lemon. Due to lemon juice and zest the pastry is very flavoured with piquant citrus taste. If you want to get muffins a bit wetter, place done dough into the fridge for 12 hours or even more. Within this time the flour in the dough will take more wet and the pastry also gets wet in the end.
