Lemon and poppy seeds are a well-known combination, and these cupcakes add a zesty flair to any tea table or picnic basket. The fresh thyme gives a lovely botanical flavour to the cupcakes, making them a little more sophisticated. The ratio of lemon juice to icing sugar adds just enough acidity to the recipe to balance out the sweetness and rounds the cakes off beautifully.

Die reuk van varsgebakte koekies is onweerstaanbaar, so sit jou voorskoot aan en trek die maatkoppies nader. Almal gaan bly wees oor ‘n baksel of twee tuisgemaakte koekies. Dis ideaal vir die vakansietyd of maak ‘n fles of blik vol as ‘n bederfgeskenk.
