These mini glazed lemon poppyseed muffins are a heavenly little bite of lemon-flavored bliss.

Anything lemon flavored I gravitate to. Especially lemon desserts. These little muffins are the perfect bite, and the lemon glaze takes them to the next level.
I like making mini muffins instead of regular sized ones because they just seem too large. I usually just want a few bites and two of these little guys are the perfect amount. Now if you do like normal sized muffins, I’m sure you could make these in a regular muffin tin, but you would need to adjust the baking time. I haven’t tried this though.
These would be the perfect addition to your lunch box or picnic basket. Send a few of these with your kids for breakfast before school. School mornings can get hectic, so these are great to have on hand for those busy mornings.

Notes
You don't have to glaze them. They are good without it as well.
