2 1/2 tsp baking powder

Instructions
Combine dry ingredients. In another bowl, combine wet ingredients.
Pour wet ingredients into dry and gently combine until barely moistened.
Divide batter equally into 12 standard size muffin cups. (cups will be less than full of batter)
Bake for 25-30 minutes at 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
After muffins have baked you can either eat them as they are or dip the tops into sugar while they're still hot, or you can drizzle icing over them using the icing recipe listed above.
Notes
These lemon poppy seed muffins are not too sweet, which is why I like to add a sweet topping to them. If you like, you can omit the topping and add an extra spoonful of sugar in the batter.
