I remembered that they were very tasty, fragrant, relatively large, soft and tender. I was looking for some inspiration for recipes on different websites, and after a few attempts I finally got the result I was aiming for!<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">These muffins are so soft and fragrant, with a rather &#8220;cloudy&#8221; texture and certainly moist and tender. The addition of the poppy also makes them particularly beautiful, but adds an irresistible taste. They are very easy to prepare and require only a few minutes of work. Everything else is done by the oven, and the smell will call you when they are ready.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_17150\" style=\"width: 810px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-17150\" class=\"wp-image-17150\" title=\"Starbucks Copycat Lemon Poppy Seeds Muffins\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lilcookie.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/lemon_poppy_seeds_muffins-s.jpg\" alt=\"Starbucks Copycat Lemon Poppy Seeds Muffins\" width=\"800\" height=\"534\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-17150\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo: Natalie Levin<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script><br \/>\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display: block;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-6091382327871787\" data-ad-slot=\"7832461759\" data-ad-format=\"auto\"><\/ins><br \/>\n<script>\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script><\/p>\n<h4 dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Starbucks Copycat Lemon Poppy Seeds Muffins<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">12 muffins<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><u>For the muffins:<br \/>\n<\/u>100 grams soft butter<br \/>\n200 grams (1 cup) sugar<br \/>\n1\/2 tsp. salt<br \/>\n1 tsp. vanilla extract<br \/>\n2 large eggs<br \/>\n80 ml.
