The recent newsletter recipe for "Crunchy Lemon Muffins" came just in time to utilize my surplus of lemons! (One of the benefits of living in the Valley of the Sun -- citrus trees everywhere!) And let me tell you, these are yummy! My muffins didn't turn out so 'crunchy', but they were definitely moist and sweet-tart and deeeelicious! They were a big hit among my co-workers.

I love your little muffin pan! Are those mini-muffins or the standard size? I think I am going to make these muffins for a potluck on Monday.

They were mini-muffins. I splurged a while back and bought the "NordicWare Platinum Series Bundt Brownie Pan." It comes with 12 half-cup servings that are so cute! They make muffin making that much more fun, hehe. Clean-up = not so fun!

I wonder if mine will be crunchy?

Hehe, you'll have to let us know if they are  It could be how I baked it -- I cut off the "tops" to make a smooth bottom for my bundt-lettes, and gave those to my boyfriend. He may have unknowingly consumed the crunchy part

I tasted one about 10 minutes after it came out of the oven. For me it was more "pound-cakey" but the flavor was excellent. The tops of my muffins didn't brown either but the rest of the muffins were nice and brown.
My friends are anxiously awaiting this dinner...I will probably make more for my family tomorrow.

I tried the recipe, too, but mine didn't turn out very well. I'm pretty sure I followed the directions exactly. The muffins came out very dense and had very little taste. Also, the topping made them sticky. I was disappointed, since I usually love Heather's baking recipes!

Mine were pound-cakey too, which I didn't mind. I wonder how Heather got the crunchy texture?
