Ingredients for Lemon Muffins:

4¾ cups of oat flour or ground oats
1 cup of almond flour or ground almonds
1½ cups of Greek vanilla yogurt
2 tsp of baking powder
1 lemon, juiced and zested

Topping

¼ cup of Greek vanilla yogurt
2 tsp of lemon zest
Lemon curd, optional

How to Make Lemon Muffins:

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, add the oat flour and almond flour, then give them a good stir, add the Greek yogurt, and continue mixing until well combined. Mix in the baking powder, then add the lemon zest and lemon juice and keep mixing until incorporated.

Step 2

Divide the mixture into a muffin pan lined with cupcake liners evenly, then place them in a preheated oven at 180°C or 356°F, and let the muffins bake for about 20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted at the center comes out clean.

Step 3

Once done baking remove the muffins and place them on the counter to cool, then while waiting, prepare the topping. In a separate small bowl, add the Greek yogurt and lemon zest, then mix them well, and spread it over the top of the muffins. Add some lemon curd on top, then garnish with more lemon zest if desired, and serve. Enjoy!
