Preparation
- Preheat and Prepare: Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
- Line a muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease with butter or cooking spray.
- Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and white sugar until light and creamy.
- Add the cold milk, sunflower oil, and melted butter. Mix well.
- Stir in the yogurt and vanilla sugar, ensuring the mixture is smooth and well combined.
- Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Stir in the lemon or orange zest to distribute it evenly.
- Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture using a spatula or wooden spoon. Mix gently until just combined; avoid overmixing to maintain a fluffy texture.
- Fill and Bake: Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 2/3 full to allow room for rising.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- The tops should be golden and spring back when lightly pressed.
- Cool and Serve: Allow muffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Enjoy warm or at room temperature, plain or with butter, jam, or honey.
