Combine first 6 ingredients in a large bowl; make a well in center of mixture and set aside. Combine egg, yogurt, butter and lemon juice; mix well. Add to dry ingredients; stir just until moistened. Spoon batter into greased muffin pans, filling three-fourths full. Bake at 400 degrees for 20 minutes, or until lightly browned.
Make glaze by combining sugar, lemon rind and juice in a small saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until sugar dissolves. Cool muffins in pans 5 minutes. Remove from pans and place on a wire rack. While muffins are warm, prick with wooden pick, then pour glaze over muffins and sprinkle with toasted almonds.
