Lemon muffins

The recipe for tender and aromatic glazed cakes is called lemon muffins. In our version, we glazed the muffins with a mixture of powdered sugar and lemon juice, then topped them with a slice of citrus fruit and fresh mint leaves for a visually striking and impactful outcome. This allows the sweet citrus taste of the dough to contrast with the sour notes of the topping, giving you a pleasing range of flavours. If desired, you can offer the desserts as part of a party buffet or Sunday brunch, or serve them as a stand-alone dessert served with a glass of limoncello after the meal.

Suggestion For Lemon Muffins:

  • We suggest using delicious and low-acid lemons, like Sfusato Amalfitano, for this dish because they are fragrant and juicy. Or any other variety you happen to have at home works just fine, provided it hasn’t been chemically treated to make it safe to eat whole, skin and all, without posing any health hazards.
  • If desired, you can enhance the cakes with candied fruit, rehydrated raisins, or white chocolate chips. Alternatively, you can experiment with a more delicate and smooth version by incorporating well-drained cow’s milk ricotta from the whey into the other components.
  • If you’d rather, you can use oranges or tangerines in place of the lemons, or swap out the seed oil for 50 grams of soft butter.
  • For a maximum of four to five days, the lemon muffins can be kept at room temperature under a baking tray.
