Easy Lemon Poppy Seed Muffins

Think back to the first summer you can remember and think of what really stands out the most to you? Was it the weather, or maybe a fun vacation, or was it something you ate? I always think back to the first summers I can remember and I always think of food and different flavors.

Fast forward a few decades later and it is probably no wonder why I have a crafts and recipes lifestyle blog. In general I think most of my childhood memories revolve around food. We traveled a lot because my father was in the military and I remember lots of cookouts and get-togethers.

A perfectly easy summer dessert

One of my favorite things about this Lemon Poppy Seed Muffins recipe is how easy it is. You will be hard pressed to find anything remotely hard to cook or bake on my blog. I just don’t have the time or energy to make a gourmet recipe that takes forever and a chemistry degree. You will, however, find simple, easy recipes just like this one.

How do I make moist lemon poppy seed muffins?

No that’s the trick! Just how do you make Lemon Poppy Seed Muffins that are flavorful and moist? It’s all about one simple ingredient. The instant pudding mix. I am convinced this is what helps these muffins keep the moisture and flavor so beautifully.

There aren’t a lot of ingredients or energy that have to go into making these muffins. Just a few ingredients and you are ready to bake.

Here is what you will need:

  • 1 boxed lemon cake mix
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 3.4oz. box lemon instant pudding
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 Tbsp poppy seeds
  • 1 cup boiling water

The Easiest Lemon Poppy Seed Muffins Recipe

Heat the oven to 350. Grab all of your ingredients (with exception to the boiling water) and mix well in a medium dish. Preferably one with a pour spout for easy pouring if you have it. If not, use a cookie scoop for the perfect fill amount.

Slowly mix in the boiling water. Pour the batter into the muffin tin, filling the liners 2/3 full.

Bake for 15-17 minutes or until the muffins are a light golden brown on top.

Super easy! These are seriously easy and super moist. It’s one of my favorite summertime desserts!

If you love muffins as much as I do, you might also like these Banana Bread Muffins. They are moist and delicious and a great way to use up those ripe bananas. If you want something a little low calorie but easily adjustable, grab this recipe for peanut butter muffins. I also love these Pumpkin Muffins in the fall.
