Orange Muffins

Orange Muffins

Orange Muffins are like a little ray of sunshine in the middle of winter! These moist muffins are made with Greek yogurt, fresh orange juice and zest. They can be eaten warm, right from the oven with or without butter. If you really want to kick up the orange flavor and make them look extra pretty, let them cool and add the orange glaze. It is sweet and tangy with shreds of zest that make it colorful.

These muffins can be made at any time of the year but if you make them during citrus season you will find a more interesting variety of oranges available in the markets. Try to find some Cara Cara oranges which have a slightly pink darker flesh and sweet juice, or some Blood Oranges which would  make the muffins and glaze really colorful.

Orange Muffins will be best when served within a few hours of baking. They will freeze well however if you want to make them ahead.

If you see some great oranges at the market, buy a few extra and make an Orange Olive Oil Cake.
