Vegan Lemon Poppy Seed Muffins Delight

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Vegan Lemon Poppy Seed Muffins Delight.

1. Step 1

   Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare a muffin tin by greasing 9 cups or lining them with paper liners.

2. Step 2

   In a mixing bowl, whisk together the sugar, lemon juice, vegetable oil, lemon zest, and lemon extract until well combined. Stir in the coconut milk until the mixture is smooth.

3. Step 3

   In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. If using, gently fold in the mashed banana and poppy seeds.

4. Step 4

   Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.

5. Step 5

   Bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 22 minutes, or until the tops spring back when lightly pressed and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely for at least 25 minutes.

6. Step 6

   For the glaze, mix confectioners' sugar with 1 tablespoon of lemon juice in a small bowl. Brush the glaze over the tops of the cooled muffins.
