I tried this recipe today.
The muffins rise when they were baking but once I removed them from the oven and placed them on the cooling rack, they sank and the top became flat.
I followed the recipe closely but I don't know why they sank.
Overall they taste yummy

Hi Anncoo,
I found this receipe and decided to try making it. Initally the muffins rise nicely while in the oven, but after it cool down it shrink, could you please advise where I go wrong? I follow the receipe to a T. Did I overdo in some steps? I'm very puzzle.
Thanks

@AnonymousHi Unice, Sometimes ovens can vary with cooking times. The reason of your muffins shrink might due to they are not fully cooked. You may need to bake for another 5 mins extra and place your muffin tray in the middle of the oven for baking.Hope this helps 🙂
It's a yummy muffin + beautiful decoration + nice photo = perfect!
Thank you for your compliments Kat. Please visit often.
@Cook with KellyThanks Kelly 🙂
Hello Sarah's Mommy:Thank you for coming here. Don't worry about the Yogurt as the lemon flavour will overcome it. Adding yogurt will makes the muffin softer and moist. When making muffin must not over stir the flour. Grease the muffin pan with butter before adding batter into it.Worth trying this recipe as it is quick and easy.
I love those muffin cups – really cute!
Чудесни!Много ми харесват.Поздрави!

Is lemon oil a compulsory ingredient?
SIS: I don't always stick to use the flour in recipes, just try to use the flour that I have in hand.
Wendy,
Thank you for your compliment 🙂
i love your presentation and recipe! good job!
Thumbs up!!!!
These really caught my eye! The combo of lemon and yogurt sounds awesome!
Anncoo, can scoop batter into the muffin cups directly?
Hi, first time here. I love most of your recipes, they look very nice and I am sure they taste good too.
I wish to try this Lemon Yogurt Muffin as my first attempt in baking muffin. Any tips for first timer?;-)
By the way, may I know will the muffin has very strong yogurt taste? Actually I am not a big fan of yogurt but I like sour food.
Can I used a muffin baking pan compared to individual paper cups?
Thanks!
Nina & Pigpigscorner:
Thank you for your compliments 🙂
Your muffins look so adorable and irresistable! Btw your first photo looks great, like those shots in the magazine. 😉
Food For Tots: Thank you for your compliments 🙂
Last time I used ice cream scoop but now I think use piping bag faster and not so messy. Can buy the disposal type from Phoon Huat. OR maybe you can use the ordinary plastic bag (the one from supermarket) and cut a hole at one angle.
these are so cute. I love the cupcake liners. Thanks for visiting my blog!
They are so cute!
This is adorable! I would slap back the hands of anyone who thought it would be okay to take one. LOL Just kidding. Pretty much.
Love lemon!!
Muffins look so cute and adorable 🙂
I love the flavors in them 🙂
Kathy: Thank you!
Cherry Potato, Lone Acorn & Parita:
Thank you!:D
CBL : Thank you :DYummy Koh: Is sweet sour not sour.:)
Thanks, Ann. Looks easy shall try that out. How's the taste – very sourish?
Wow these muffins look so tasty. The decoration was also adorable.
Ur muffin looks fabulous in the photo. Lemon + yogurt, my fav!
Hi Yummy Koh: Thank you! Of course you can omit the lemon oil but when lemon oil added into the muffins you can really smell the fragrant flavour of lemon.
If you can get lemon yogurt is so much better than plain yogurt.
Hi Nanita,
I might not understand what you are saying but I think it is surely a compliment from you ~ Thank you!
