Experimental muffins

Ever wondered how a tea-flavoured muffin would taste like? well, its GOOD! and its easypeasy lemonsqueezy. All it takes *dump*plat*crack*dump*mixmixmix*bloobleepla and into the oven.
recipe:
3 eggs
1/2 cup oil
3/4 cup sugar (add more if you prefer it sweeter)
1/3 cup lemon juice
zest of 1 lemon
a dash of vanilla essence
1 cup wholemeal flour
1/2 cup almond meal
3 bags of lemon tea

 Empty your teabags.
Combine eggs,oil,sugar,orange juice,zest and vanilla in a large bowl. Mix in flour,almond meal and tea until everything is just combined.
Fill muffin cups about 3/4 full and bake them in a 180 C oven for about 20 to 25 minutes.

Now would'nt these babies go well with cream cheese frosting? yeah they would=) here we go:
(for 12 cupcakes) 
250g cream cheese
1/3 cup icing sugar (more if you like)
zest of 1 lemon

Soften cream cheese by either leaving it in room temperature for a couple of hours or zapping it in the microwave for about 20 seconds. (australian weather being so cold, I normally zap it). 
Sift icing sugar over the cream cheese and mix it in until you have a smooth mixture. 
Stir in lemon zest and Ice away!
