I bake muffins every Sunday morning, so I'm always trying different ingredients to make them interesting. These citrus muffins are my husband's favorite.

Ingredients

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup sugar
2-1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 large eggs
1/4 cup whole milk
1/3 cup vegetable oil
3 tablespoons lime juice
1-1/2 teaspoons grated lime zest

Directions

In a bowl, combine the first four ingredients. In another bowl, beat the eggs, milk, oil, lime juice and zest. Stir into dry ingredients just until moistened.
Fill paper-lined muffin cups two-thirds full. Bake at 400° for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool for 5 minutes before removing from pan to a wire rack.
