Ingredients:
12 Regular or 48 miniature muffins
2 tbsp Coarsely chopped,
Peeled fresh ginger root
1 Or 2 lemons, well scrubbed and
Patted dry
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, at room
Temperature
1 cup Granulated sugar
2 large Eggs
1 tsp Baking soda
1 cup Plain yogurt or buttermilk
2 cup All-purpose flour
1/4 cup Freshly squeezed lemon juice
2 tbsp Granulated sugar
Instructions:
Heat oven to 375 F. Grease muffin cups or use foil or paper baking
cups. Finely chop the ginger. Finely grate the lemon peel so you have
2 tablespoons.

In a large bowl, beat butter and the 1 cup sugar with a wooden spoon
or electric mixer until pale and fluffy. Beat in eggs, one at a time.
Add ginger and lemon peel.

Stir baking soda into yogurt or buttermilk; it will start to bubble
and rise up.

Fold flour into ginger mixture one third at a time, alternating with
the yogurt. When well blended, scoop into muffin cups. Bake 18 to 20
minutes, or until lightly browned and springy to the touch.

While muffins bake, mix lemon juice and the 2 tablespoons sugar in a
small dish. Stir until sugar dissolves.

When muffins are baked, remove from oven and let cool 3 to 5 minutes
in pan. Remove from pan and dip top and bottom into lemon juice and
sugar mixture.

Note: If you have a food processor use this method: Peel one lemon
with a vegetable peeler. Put ginger, lemon peel, and the 1 cup sugar
into the food processor, fitted with a steel blade. Process 1 to 2
minutes, scraping sides once, until lemon peel and giner are very
finely chopped. Add butter; process about 30 seconds until creamy.
Add eggs, one at a time, processing briefly after each addition.
Scrape mixture into a large bowl; if it looks curdled, don't worry.
Add baking soda, yogurt, and flour and continue as above.
