Tupps Tidbits: For the crumb topping, we added a bit more flour than what the recipe called for and the "crumble" l did not turn out the best. Also, due to the ingredients, we would recommend not using cupcake liners & just spray muffin tin (the batter it might stick to the paper liners).
Believe it or not, we found they these had a very weak lemon taste. We even used "real" lemon juice and zest. If you are going to try this recipe, maybe adjust it by swapping the plain yogurt for a lemon blend. They were super moist, but we are going to say this is NOT A KEEPER recipe at our house.
