⅔ cup white sugar
½ cup vegetable oil

2 tablespoons poppy seeds
1 teaspoon baking powder
¼ teaspoon salt
½ cup buttermilk
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
⅔ cup confectioners' sugar
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease 10 muffin cups or line with paper muffin liners.
  • Beat sugar and oil together in a bowl with an electric mixer. Add eggs and lemon zest; beat until smooth.
  • Stir flour, poppy seeds, baking powder, and salt together in bowl; gradually beat into the sugar mixture alternately with buttermilk and 2 tablespoons lemon juice until you achieve a smooth batter. Stir vanilla extract into the batter; pour into prepared muffin tins.
