How to Make Moist and Fluffy Lemon Poppy Seed MUFFINS!

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

In a bowl, combine flour, baking powder, turmeric (if using), and kosher salt, and whisk to incorporate.

In another bowl, mix granulated sugar and brown sugar, then add extra virgin olive oil and buttermilk, mixing until smooth.

Add the egg and lemon zest to the sugar and oil mixture, massaging the lemon zest into the sugar to release oils for more flavor.

Combine the dry ingredients with the wet mixture, adding vanilla and lemon juice, and whisk until just incorporated, being careful not to overmix.

Fold in the poppy seeds until evenly distributed in the batter.

Line a muffin pan with muffin tins and grease with butter or nonstick spray.

Scoop the batter into the muffin tins, filling them about three-quarters full.

Bake in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean or with a few crumbs.
