These Moist & Delicious Muffins Are Made With Just A Few Pantry Staples
I don’t know about you, but I’m a HUGE lemon fan. I love the tart and crisp flavor. These delicious lemon muffins are so quick and easy to make with just a few ingredients, and they are quite yummy enjoyed for breakfast, a sweet snack or even dessert!
Thanks to a box of Betty Crocker lemon cake mix, you can whip up these heavenly lemon muffins in a breeze. Simply mix the dry cake mix with eggs, butter, milk and a little fresh lemon zest. Bam! Deliciousness. You can also add a couple of tbsps of poppy seeds, but I don’t usually have those on hand so I opted to leave them out.
These simple lemon muffins are definitely on the sweeter side, so I consider them an after lunch or dinner treat. Your kids will definitely love them! You could even fold in half a cup of blueberries before baking for added flavor and nutrition.
Muffins are the perfect little snack for on-the-go, lunch boxes and busy mornings. They travel well and are just as good leftover. Although, these usually disappear on the first day in my house.
