Ingredients

• 2 cup all-purpose flour

1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners.
2. In a large bowl, mix together the all-purpose flour, sugar, poppy seeds, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, vegetable oil, large egg, vanilla extract, lemon zest, and lemon juice until smooth.
4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Avoid overmixing to ensure tender muffins.
