Time 45m

Yield Makes 6-8

Number Of Ingredients 9

100g unsalted butter , softened
100g caster sugar
2 eggs , beaten
115g self-raising flour
ΒΌ tsp baking powder
2 lemons , zested and juiced
100g yogurt
150g icing sugar
1 lemon , juiced

Steps:

  • Line a muffin tin with large muffin cases. Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Tip all the ingredients in a large bowl and mix until smooth using a wooden spoon or an electric whisk. Spoon tablespoons of the batter into the muffin cases until they're three-quarters full (you can make up to 8, depending on the case size). Bake for 30 mins or until a skewer comes out clean. Leave on a cooling rack to cool completely.
  • Meanwhile, make the icing. Sieve the icing sugar into a bowl and gradually add lemon juice until you have a thick but pourable icing - you may not need all of the juice. Drizzle over the cooled muffins and serve.
