 LEMON BLUEBERRY MUFFIN WITH LEMON GLAZE | STARTUP COOKING

Lemon Blueberry Muffins - Fluffy and tender lemon muffins filled with blueberries and drizzled with a tangy lemon glaze.

However, this muffin recipe is very quick and easy to make. They're tangy, juicy and with perfect sweet. The bursts of juicy blueberries and lemon flavor keep things light, refreshing and so satisfying, it's delicious 😋.

I added yogurt and oil to keep the muffins super soft and very moist texture to keep this muffins tasting fresh for days. If you don't like yogurt replace with sour cream. 

Blueberry muffins are a staple in our home. Yes! we love blueberries a lot. These muffins are bursting with fresh blueberries and tangy lemon flavor, which makes them perfect for breakfast, brunch or after school snack and the lemon glaze makes them extra special. 

Can't find blueberries? replace them with blackberries, raspberries or even chocolate chunks! Follow my step-by-step photo recipe to prepare Lemon Blueberry Muffin with Lemon Glaze. If you like this recipe, share it, tweet it and pin it. Please do try and post your comments.
