3) In a large bowl, combine together the butter and sugar, add the eggs, lemon zest and juice.
4) Add the yogurt and make sure it’s combined (don’t be scared if the batter splits at this point).
5) Add the dry ingredients and mix to incorporate and get a creamy mixture but don’t over mix.
6) Divide your batter evenly among the muffin liners and bake the muffins for about 18 to 20 minutes or until fully cooked through.
7) Allow the muffins to cool completely!
For the Glaze:
8) Combine the sugar and lemon juice with just enough milk to get a runny consistency but not too runny otherwise it will drizzle off the muffin.
