Keto Lemon Sour Cream Muffins

Don�t be intimidated by the multiple steps in these keto lemon sour cream muffins either � the muffin portion is made in the blender so it�s super easy, and the streusel topping is mixed with a fork in a bowl, as is the easy lemon glaze.  There is lemon juice and/or zest added to every component, so it�s sooooooper lemony people � in the best possible way.

You might be wondering why the sour cream.  It�s an honest question.  I wasn�t sure about it myself, but I used to order an amazing lemon sour cream pound cake years ago, and it was so very tasty that I thought I�d try it in these keto lemon sour cream muffins.

The sour cream made the muffins very tender, super rich, and the tart cream flavor really complemented the lemon.
