Time for Tea! Fresh Lemon Ginger Muffins & a Storm
It's been storming here in East Tennessee almost every other day so a warm lemon ginger muffin and a good cup of tea seemed a comforting idea! These muffins are dipped in a lemon sugar glaze that makes them extra special and eating one fresh from the oven made the storm worthwhile. So, grab a cup of tea, sit back and relax while you take in the rain and thunder and allow it to replenish yourself and the earth.
What you'll need: 2 T Fresh Ginger 1-2 Lemons 1 stick Butter (1/2 c) 1 c Sugar 2 Eggs 1 tsp Baking Soda 1 c plain yogurt or buttermilk 2 c All-Purpose Flour 1/4 c Fresh Lemon Juice 2 T Sugar In a food processor, add chopped ginger, lemon peal and 1 c sugar. Process 1-2 minutes. Add butter and cream. Add eggs one at a time processing between each. Pour into bowl. Add baking soda, yogurt or buttermilk and flour. Alternate adding yogurt or milk and flour until both are used up. Scoop into greased muffin pan and bake at 375 degrees for about 18-20 minutes. Dissolve lemon juice with 2 T sugar. When muffins are done, let them cool for about 5 minutes then dip into sugar lemon mix.
