Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 12-cup muffin pan with paper liners. Using a vegetable peeler, remove the zest from the lemon in wide strips, being careful not to remove the white pith. Combine the lemon zest and sugar in a food processor and process until the zest is finely chopped, scraping the bowl halfway through, about 1 minute. Stir in the poppy seeds. Scoop out 3 tablespoons of the lemon-poppy seed sugar and set aside.
- Whisk the flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt in a large bowl. Whisk the remaining lemon-poppy seed sugar, the vegetable oil, buttermilk, vanilla and eggs in a medium bowl; stir into the flour mixture until just combined. Stir in the zucchini.
- Divide the batter among the muffin cups, filling them three-quarters of the way. Tap the bottom of the pan lightly on the counter to smooth out the batter. Sprinkle the tops of the muffins with the reserved lemon-poppy seed sugar. Bake until the muffins are golden brown around the edges and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 23 to 25 minutes. Let the muffins cool 5 minutes in the pan, then remove to a rack to cool completely.
LEMON POPPY SEED MUFFINS II
Melt in your mouth lemony-goodness! These muffins are LEMONY, but delicious! If you prefer, use less lemon juice for the glaze and substitute equal amount of milk for glaze. Or, simply forgo the glaze but this really adds to the overall taste. Also, you may use 24 mini-muffin tins, bake only 10-12 minutes.

Tips:
- Prep your ingredients: Before you start baking, measure and prep all of your ingredients. This will ensure that you have everything you need and that your muffins turn out perfectly.
- Use fresh lemon zest: Fresh lemon zest adds a bright, citrusy flavor to these muffins. If you don't have fresh lemons on hand, you can use 1 teaspoon of bottled lemon juice instead.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make your muffins tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Fill the muffin cups evenly: Fill each muffin cup about 2/3 full. This will prevent the muffins from overflowing and ensure that they bake evenly.
- Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This is the best way to tell if your muffins are done baking. Overbaking can make them dry.
- Let the muffins cool before frosting: Allow the muffins to cool completely before frosting them. This will help the frosting set properly.
