Instead of 3/4 cup of milk, I added 1/2 cup and 1/4 cup of lemon juice. I also baked the muffins for 18 minutes at 390 degrees. It was moist and fluffy, but I felt like it needed a little more lemon juice and zest. Next time, I'm adding lemon extract. Yummy!

I took the recommendations from the other reviews. I added another 1/4 cup of milk, 2 tbs of lemon juice, and also sprinkled lemon zest over the tops before putting them in the oven. I baked my muffins for 17 minutes, and they came out great. --I made this recipe a second time and this time I used the juice from a whole lemon, about 2 tbsp more sugar, and instead of sprinkling the top with lemon zest I sprinkled it with a thin layer of sugar before baking. The sugar on top gave it a more crisp and slightly sweet top and the extra lemon gave it a fuller lemon flavor. I thought the second batch was twice as good as the first and this is how I will make them from now on!

They were good but definitely too dry. I freaked out a little from the texture of the batter, it was lumpier than I thought it would be. I agree that it would be good to have some lemon flavor so you should add some lemon juice. Otherwise they are very sweet and bland and good for tea.

These muffins are delicous! I added blueberries, lemon juice, and extra lemon zest. I also sprinkled sugar on for taste. This recipe is very easy and quick.

They taste like lemon biscuits. I added 1 tsp. of lemon flavor and I put lemon icing on top. It taste good. It was quick and easy to make.

I used 1/2 cup brown sugar, lightly packed, instead of white, increased baking powder to 4 tsp., and milk to one cup. Also, I added one cup of blueberries. Baked for 15 minutes at 400 F. My family loved these muffins.
