Serve the muffins fresh for the best flavor, or store them in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
You can also freeze the muffins for up to 1 month. To reheat, simply microwave or place in a warm oven for a few minutes.
Variations:
For a tangier twist, add a teaspoon of lemon zest into the lemon curd mixture.
Top the muffins with a dusting of powdered sugar or a light glaze for extra sweetness.
You can also add poppy seeds to the batter for a bit of texture.
FAQ:
Can I use bottled lemon juice for the lemon curd?
Fresh lemon juice will give the best flavor, but bottled lemon juice can be used in a pinch. Just make sure to use a high-quality, pure lemon juice.
What if I don’t have corn starch?
If you don’t have corn starch, you can substitute it with an equal amount of all-purpose flour, though the texture might be slightly different.
How can I make the muffins extra moist?
Using vegetable oil instead of butter and making sure not to overmix the batter will result in a soft, moist muffin. You can also add a little sour cream or yogurt to the batter for an even more tender crumb.
