Meyer Lemon Ricotta Muffins

Langkah-langkah

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a muffin pan with paper liners or spray with nonstick spray.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flours, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
3. In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to beat sugar, butter, applesauce, and zest until light and fluffy. Beat in the ricotta, then egg, lemon juice and almond extract. Stir in the dry ingredients just until blended.
4. Using an ice cream scoop, divide the batter among the muffin cups. If using the tiny lemon wedges, place one in the center of each muffin. Sprinkle some almonds around the lemon wedge. Sprinkle with sparkling sugar, if desired.
5. Bake 18 to 20 minutes, or until the muffins test done (a toothpick inserted in the center should come out clean).
6. Place on a wire rack to cool. Once cooled, store in a covered container.
