Baked Lemon Poppy Seed Doughnuts

I posted a lemon poppy seed muffin a few week ago and on the time I couldn’t decide if I desired to make lemon poppy seed desserts or lemon poppy seed doughnuts. I determined to make the muffins and store the doughnuts for another day. well, right here’s any other day. I’m so happy I didn’t forget about approximately them due to the fact these doughnuts are wonderful! they may be loaded with a vibrant lemon flavor, their texture is perfectly gentle and fluffy, and i like how wet they're. they may be just like a muffin but probably higher due to the fact you get greater surface blanketed in glaze, so it’s type of like consuming muffin tops (, the nice part of any muffin).
