   *DIRECTIONS*
   
   Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.  Sift together flour,
   baking powder, baking soda and salt. In a seperate
   bowl, whisk together eggs, yogurt, butter, 1/4 cup
   sugar, honey and lemon zest. Add the flour mixture and
   fold until just combined. Spoon into buttered muffin
   tins and bake for 15 to 20 minutes. While the muffins
   are baking, mix lemon juice, 1/3 cup sugar and 3
   Tablespoons water. When the muffins are done, remove
   them from the oven and pierce the top of each one
   several times with a fork. Brush the syrup over the
   top of each one. Let the muffins cool in the tins for
   three minutes, then cool on a rack. Makes 12 muffins.
