These are my all-time favorite muffins, and I have a hard time eating just one. With their pretty color ans tangy flavor, they're delectable. Serve them with brunch or as a tasty snack.

Big Batch Baked GoodsWe enjoy homemade baked goods for breakfast, but I don’t have time to bake each morning before school. So I devote 1 day a month to making large batches of cinnamon rolls, doughnuts, cream cheese rolls and muffins. I place them in heavy-duty resealable plastic bags labeled with the date. (They freeze for about 2 months.) On busy mornings, it’s a snap to pop a few in the microwave to warm. The kids love the fresh-baked flavor. —Lori T., New London, Texas

I would add some grated lemon peel or increase the extract next time.

quick and eay, Next time I would add some lemon zest also as the lemon extract doesn't add much flavour

I used half the sugar, substituted applesauce for the oil, substituted a little bit of the flour with whole wheat flour, and didn't have half and half on hand, so I used melted butter and whole milk. They turned out great, my kids loved them!

I made half a batch of these for after dinner. I think that they're more of a breakfast muffin, but great flavour.
