I love using lemon & yogurt in many recipes. I am sure lemon yogurt will give it an extra lemon flavor.. this recipe is easy to make. ( I use yogurt for soft scones, biscuits & cakes( keeps it moist )
I love poppy seeds muffin!!! Never thought of using yogurt! Yogurt keeps the muffin moist? What about using lemon yogurt?
