Steps
Break the eggs into a bowl and add the sugar with a pinch of salt.
Start mixing with an electric mixer until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 10 minutes. While mixing at low speed, add the oil. Stop the mixer and add a little flour at a time, alternating with the almond milk.
Mix well with the mixer, then add the baking powder and grated lemon zest. Arrange the muffin cups inside a mold.
Pour the batter to fill 3/4 of the cup, decorate with almond granules, and bake in a preheated static oven at 350°F for 15-18 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool.
