- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 4 large eggs
- 2 cups milk
- 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon lemon zest

Instructions
- Preheat and Prep: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin or line with parchment liners.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, and salt.
- Add Wet Ingredients: Add melted butter, eggs, milk, lemon juice, lemon zest, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth—the batter will be thin.
