Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease with butter to prevent sticking.
-
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients.
-
In a separate bowl, combine the melted butter, milk, lemonade, eggs, lemon zest, and vanilla extract. Mix well until everything is fully incorporated.
-
Pour the wet ingredients into the well of the dry ingredients. Gently fold the mixture together, being careful not to overmix. A few lumps in the batter are okay.
-
Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about two-thirds full.
-
Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
-
Once baked, remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
-
Serve these lemonade muffins warm or at room temperature for a delicious treat that pairs perfectly with a cup of tea or a glass of lemonade.
-
Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or freeze for longer storage. Simply reheat in the microwave for a few seconds before enjoying.
