🍋 Mary Berry Lemon Curd Muffins Ingredients

  • stick unsalted butter melted and cooled
  • ½ cup white sugar
  • 1 tablespoon lemon zest
  • ¾ cup yogurt at room temperature
  • 1 large egg at room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 ¾ cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder

🧁 How To Make Mary Berry Lemon Curd Muffins

  1. Set the oven to 375°F, or 190°C, and line a muffin or cupcake pan with 9 liners.
  2. Combine the white sugar and lemon zest in a large bowl; this will aid in the extraction of lemon oils. Use a whisk or your hands to stir the sugar until it turns a light yellow.
  3. Melt the butter and stir in the yogurt and egg. Mix with a whisk until all lumps are gone.
  4. Combine the salt, baking soda, flour, and baking powder. Before any more flour streaks appear, fold everything together with a rubber spatula.
  5. Fill up the muffin liners nearly to the rim with batter using a spoon or ice cream scooper.
  6. Bake for 22 to 25 minutes in a preheated oven.
  7. Remove the muffins from the oven and, using a pastry brush, brush warm lemon curd over each muffin top.
  8. Transfer the muffins to a wire cooling rack to cool entirely after 15 minutes of cooling in the pan.
  9. Fill the muffins with lemon curd after they have cooled entirely. Fill a squeezy bottle or a pastry bag fitted with a small round tip with the remaining lemon curd.
  10. Create a hole in the top of each muffin using the tip of the squeeze bottle, a toothpick, or a skewer. Poke a hole in the center of each muffin and poke it down it.
  11. Squeeze the lemon curd into the muffin’s center using the tip of a piping bag or a squeeze bottle. Continue with the other half of the muffins.
