Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

Grease muffin tins with butter or use foil muffin liners.

In a mixing bowl, combine melted butter and milk.

Add 2 eggs and mix well, saving lemon juice for last to prevent thickening.

In a separate bowl, mix together 1/2 cup flour, 3/4 cup sugar, and 1 tablespoon lemon zest.

Add a pinch of salt and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract to the dry ingredients and mix.

Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined.

Fill muffin cups about 3/4 full with the batter.

Bake in the preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes, twisting the pan halfway through for even baking.

Let the cupcakes cool in the muffin pan for 10-15 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.

Chill in the refrigerator for better flavor before serving.

Dust with powdered sugar before serving, if desired.
