  • Heat the oven to 350°F and arrange a rack in the middle. Place cupcake liners in a 12-well muffin pan; alternatively, coat the wells with butter. Set the pan aside.
  • Whisk together flour, sugar, poppy seeds, zests, baking powder, salt, and baking soda in a large bowl to aerate and break up any lumps; set aside.
  • Whisk together egg, yolk, and melted butter in a medium bowl until eggs are broken up. Add milk, juices, and vanilla extract and whisk to combine. Add wet ingredients to flour mixture and stir until just evenly combined, about 22 strokes. (Do not overmix; the batter should be thick, but the ingredients should be evenly incorporated.)
  • Fill the muffin wells about 2/3 of the way, and bake muffins until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 20 to 25 minutes. Set the pan on a wire rack and let muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes. Remove muffins from the pan and serve.
