This is a really quick and easy muffin recipe, and the muffin itself is really moist and fluffy with a crunchy topping. These are way too easy to eat!!!
This recipe can also be made EGG FREE! I accidentally forgot to put in the egg in my first batch so I thought it would make a good experiment!! They look and feel pretty similar, quite moist and fluffy, however with the egg the muffin is a little more ‘crumbier’. If I didn’t taste one after another I probably wouldn’t even tell the difference! The one without egg is slightly more denser and doughier in texture (similar to the doughnut muffins) and is a bit like a packet mix cupcake texture. Either way, these are soo delicious and very easy to make and eat!
Preheat oven to 200 degrees. Add all 'muffin' ingredients into the bowl - mix 20 seconds/Speed 5. Spoon into muffin cases. Bake for 15 minutes or until a skewer comes out clean. As soon as the muffins come out of the oven, brush the tops of the muffins with lemon juice, and sprinkle with sugar. There has been positive reviews using gluten free flour, coconut sugar, other citrus (instead of lemons), using lemon curd in the middle, and also using this as a base muffin for adding berries etc.

I made these last night, I replaced half the sugar with natvia and didn't use an egg. They were quick and easy.
Hi Kelly, you can completely omit the egg. My Milo Muffins are also egg free ? http://thermotwinning.blogspot.com.au/2016/05/30-second-milo-muffins.html
Hi, you have said the egg is optional (yeah!!!) Should I use a substitute or will it be just as yummy without an egg? Thank you, Kelly
These keep really well for a few days, just zap them in the microwave for 10 seconds so they are super fluffy again. The crunch comes from the lemon juice and sugar topping, which 'melts' after a day, but you can always just sprinkle more sugar on top before you eat it
Yup I have a pinterest page! I think this is the pin (I'm not very good with Pinterest! )

My kids love these cupcakes. I reduced the sugar and added frozen blueberries. Sooo good! My son said they are the best muffins he has ever had. Thank you!
I can’t seem print this recipe – the page is blank….??
I love this recipe! With or without egg, its delicious
Has anyone tried these with gluten free flour?
Great recipeinspiration! I substituted wholemeal spelt flour, adding the required amount of baking powder, used coconut oil instead of butter, almond milk instead of regular milk, coconut sugar instead of the white, cut down to 100 grams. I also added 3/4 cup of frozen blueberries. They came out great!
So u pretty much changed the whole recipe lol
Wow. These are amazing!!! I subbed the flour for a gluten free SR flour and they worked amazing! Big hit in our household and so quick! Thank you!
Hi,
Is the butter melted or at room temperature .
Thanks Carol.
Made these this morning – quick and easy – I did lemon and lime and they were delciious – we ate 2 each for morning tea!
Wow! amazing lemon muffins. They are looking so delicious and attractive that i want to try it at home by today only.
Yum! I made this dairy free too by using soy milk and nuttelex. Super easy, super quick, super yum!!! I made them for my daughters lunchbox but I’m pretty sure she won’t get many of them!
These are delicious!! I throw in the lemon peel with 50g of sugar and blitz to get the zest first rather than grating the lemon. I also poke holes in the top of the cooked cupcakes and pour on the lemon juice then sprinkle on the sugar which makes for a deliciously crunchy topping. Soo good! Always well received 🙂 thank you!
So easy and so delicious. Thankyou! We’ll be making these again 🙂
these were super yummy and moist added a spoon ful of lemon curd as i had some left over and trew in some blueberries they were a hit will be saving this one thankyou.
