If there is one flavor you need to explore this spring and summer, it’s the tangy goodness of lemon. After one bite of refreshing lemon treats, your day will instantly be brighter. This week, I thought I’d spotlight five easy recipes that’ll put you in pure citrus bliss.<\/p>\n

“This zingy and sweet muffin is the perfect way to start the day,” thinks Brenda Andrews<\/a> (Bakersfield, CA)<\/a> of her Lite Sunny Lemon-Raspberry Muffins<\/a>. “I bake these with my daughters; the raspberry drizzle was my 17-year-olds idea!”<\/p>\n

If you love lemon and raspberry, these are for you. This is a bran muffin with lighter ingredients and big flavors. <\/p>\n

The muffin is moist and dense like a bran muffin but with pops of lemon and raspberry. The glaze takes these over the top. Perfect with your morning coffee.<\/p>\n

Another way to start the day is with Carol White’s<\/a> (Fort Lauderdale, FL<\/a>) Lemon Blueberry Coffee Cake<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“Bring the bold and beloved fresh flavors of lemon and blueberries together to make this wonderful breakfast treat,” shares Carol.<\/p>\n

Filled with classic lemon flavor and just enough blueberries, this coffee cake is not overly sweet. It has a nice texture with the perfect amount of lemon. <\/p>\n

Jeanne Gliddon’s<\/a> (Los Banos, CA<\/a>) Cream Cheese Lemon Dream Pie<\/a> is a light and refreshing pie.<\/p>\n

“I am so proud of this recipe that I created,” says Jeanne. “Everyone who has tasted this pie has been wowed and always begs me to make it again and again.”<\/p>\n

Tangy, creamy, and crunchy with a tart lemony flavor, your family and friends will come back for seconds of this pie. It’s easy to make and perfect for warmer weather.<\/p>\n

Light and airy, it will be hard to pass up a slice of Goldie Barnhart’s<\/a> (Palmyra, NY<\/a>) Lemon Crunch Dessert<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“Fresh, tangy, and so lemony” is how Goldie describes her summertime treat. <\/p>\n

The crust is made from crushed gingersnap cookies and butter. With its warm spice flavor, the crust is a nice contrast to the creamy bursting with flavor lemon mousse.<\/p>\n

A topping of gingersnap crumbs, sugar, and slivered almonds adds a nice crunch to every bite.<\/p>\n

Pound cake from scratch is tasty. Laura Davis’<\/a> (Rusk, TX<\/a>) Lemon Lovers Pound Cake<\/a> is an excellent recipe.<\/p>\n

“This has a great fresh lemon taste,” reveals Laura. “Excellent for picnics or maybe even a potluck.”<\/p>\n

Tender and buttery, this pound cake recipe is full of lemony goodness. The sweetness and tartness are a refreshing combination. Drizzled on top is an icing a little different than you’d expect. <\/p>\n

Using sour cream and butter makes the glaze thick and rich. It’s a cross between a frosting and a drizzle. Alone the cake is good, but the icing makes it fantastic.<\/p>\n

Tart and sweet, delicious lemon treats are always a must-make. If you indulge in these mouthwatering Blue Ribbon recipes, be sure to share your review. Happy Pinching!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
