- 2 tablespoons Poppy seeds
- 1 tablespoon Lemon zest
- 0.25 cup Lemon juice
- 3 Eggs
- 0.25 cup Unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup Plain Greek yogurt
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with 12 paper liners or lightly grease with cooking spray.
In a large bowl, combine almond flour, erythritol, baking powder, salt, and poppy seeds. Stir until well mixed.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the lemon zest, lemon juice, eggs, melted butter, vanilla extract, and Greek yogurt until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix the batter.
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for about 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
