vegetarian Recipe: Orange Poppy Seed Muffins

Not too sweet, slightly crunchy around the edges, and moist as can be.

Yield 6 large or 9 medium muffins
Time 30 minutes
Tools
  • muffin pans
  • large bowl
  • wooden spoon
  • zester or very fine grater
  • medium bowl
  • whisk
Ingredients
  • 1¼ c flour*
  • 1 t baking powder
  • 1/8 t baking soda
  • 1/8 t salt
  • 1 whole orange, washed
  • 1/3 c sugar
  • ¼ c milk
  • 1 egg OR 1 T ground flaxseed + 3 T water
  • ½ t vanilla extract
  • 4 T butter, melted
  • 1 T poppy seeds
Directions Preheat oven to 400. Use a little of the melted butter to grease each muffin cup.

Combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in the large bowl.

Zest the orange into medium bowl. Cut the orange in half and juice one half, adding it to the bowl. (Save the other half for another use.) Add sugar, milk, egg or flaxseed/water, vanilla, butter, and poppyseeds and whisk together.

Add the wet ingredients to the dry, and mix until just combined.

Fill each muffin tin about 2/3 full and bake for 15-20 minutes, until golden. Remove from the oven and let sit for 5 minutes before removing from the pans.

Notes *I use ¾ c white plus ½ c chestnut flour, which adds a nice subtle flavor, but all white flour works too.
