Bolo de Arroz is a traditional Portuguese rice muffin. These super light muffins have a soft and airy texture, a lemony scent and a crispy sugar crust. Plus it is gluten-free and dairy-free. —Joana

The ingredient list and instructions need to be reviewed and clarified. For example, step 3 uses (up) the lemon zest and juice. But, step 4 mentions lemon again. Also, step 4 refers to baking soda, which is not in the ingredient list. Finally, there is no mention of baking powder in the instructions (although logically it should be stirred in with the flour and salt).
