Notes
Make sure you measure your ingredients correctly.
Cream the butter and sugar thoroughly.
Add the baking soda and baking powder to the lemon juice before adding the mixture to the batter. This helps to make sure it’s activated, which gives the muffins a light, airy texture once they are baked.
