Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Prepare 12 muffin cups by greasing or lining with baking cups.
In a large bowl, measure the baking mix, sugar, and poppy seeds. Mix with a whisk or fork until ingredients are well combined.
1 ½ cups baking mix, ½ cup sugar, 1 tablespoon poppy seeds
Make a shallow well in the center of the mixture and add the egg, sour cream, and vanilla.
1 egg, ¾ cup sour cream, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Mix until ingredients are just moistened. Do not over mix.
Spoon the mixture into the muffin tin.
Bake for 20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center of the muffins comes out clean. Remove from the oven and allow to cool 10 minutes in the pan. Move the muffins to a wire rack and cool completely before glazing.
For the glaze: mix the sugar and lemon juice together in a small bowl. Drizzle over the cooled muffins.
½ cup confectioner’s sugar, 1 tablespoon lemon juice

Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the finished muffins tough.
For extra lemon flavor, stir in a teaspoon of fresh lemon zest with the wet ingredients.
These muffins freeze well. Cool completely, then freeze in a single layer before transferring to a storage bag.
