Glazed Lemon Muffins



1 1/2 C. Flour
1 C. Sugar
1/4 tsp. Baking Powder
1/4 tsp. Salt
2 Eggs
1/2 C. Plain Yogurt or Sour Cream
1/2 C. Butter, melted
Zest from 1 Lemon     *Zest before beginning batter mixture, because it takes a little time.
Juice from 1 Lemon

Streusel:
3 T. Flour
3 T. Sugar
1 T. Cold Butter
Cut these ingredients in together with a pastry blender or 2 knives and set aside.
*Or just use your hands to mash the butter into the flour and sugar. It makes a crumbly consistency.
**I also suggest having this ready before mixing up your batter.


Glaze:
1/4 C. Powdered Sugar
1 T. Lemon Juice 

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Combine flour, sugar, baking powder and salt.  Add wet ingredients and mix until just combined and moistened.  Don't over mix or you won't get fluffy muffins.  Let the batter rest for a few minutes while you grease your muffin tin (or use baking cups).  Fill the muffin cups about 2/3 full.  Sprinkle about 1 1/2 tsp. of streusel topping over each muffin before you put it in the oven.  Then bake muffins for 25 minutes.  Mix up glaze while the muffins are baking.  When the muffins come out of the oven let them cool in the pan for 5 minutes then transfer them to a plate.  Drizzle a small amount of glaze over top of each muffin.  These are great warm or cold.  Makes 12 muffins.
