How to Make Glazed Lemon-Ginger Muffins

Ingredients

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 eggs (room temperature)
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
6 tablespoons coconut oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 cup chopped candied ginger (optional)

Glazed Lemon-Ginger Muffins

Directions

Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F. Grease or line a standard muffin tin. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, ground ginger, salt, and sugar until well mixed. In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, yogurt, coconut oil, and vanilla extract. If you’re feeling adventurous, feel free to add chopped candied ginger for that extra zing!

Now, pour the wet mixture into the dry mixture and stir until just combined. Avoid overmixing for the best texture. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the edges are slightly golden and a toothpick poked into the center comes out clean. Let them cool completely before glazing.

For the glaze, beat together the confectioner’s sugar, the CBD Hemp Oil, water, and a touch of vanilla extract until smooth. Drizzle this luscious mixture over the cooled muffins. Sprinkle chopped candied ginger on top while the glaze is still wet, so it sticks nicely.

How to Serve Glazed Lemon-Ginger Muffins

These muffins are best served fresh out of the oven or after cooling with that delicious glaze on top. Pair them with a cup of tea or coffee for a delightful treat. They also make a wonderful addition to a brunch spread, alongside other goodies like cinnamon raisin sourdough English muffins.

How to Store Glazed Lemon-Ginger Muffins

If you have any muffins left over (which is rare!), store them in an airtight container. They’ll keep well at room temperature for up to a couple of days. If you want to prolong their freshness, you can refrigerate them for about a week. Just be sure to let them come to room temperature before serving again.

Tips to Make Glazed Lemon-Ginger Muffins

To ensure your muffins turn out fluffy, make sure your baking powder is fresh. Old leavening agents can make them dense. If you’re a fan of lemon, consider adding a teaspoon of lemon zest for an extra kick of flavor. You can even experiment by swapping some of the all-purpose flour for whole wheat flour for a healthier spin.

Variation

Feel free to personalize these muffins! You can substitute the candied ginger with nuts or dried fruit if that’s more your style. Adding different spices, like cardamom, can also enhance the flavor profile.

FAQs

Can I make these muffins ahead of time?
Absolutely! You can prepare the batter the night before and store it in the fridge. Just remember to bake them fresh in the morning for that hot, delightful experience.

Can I use different types of flour?
Yes, you can experiment with other flours, but keep in mind that the texture and flavor may change. Almond flour can be a fun alternative for a gluten-free version.

How do I know when the muffins are done?
A toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean, and the edges should be golden brown.
