These delicious and easy orange muffins recipe are amazing perfect as a snack or as a dessert. The taste of it is so much a like with a mini orange cake or a mix between cupcakes and muffins.

My family adore anytype of orange cakes like cupcakes and muffins spacilly with fresh orange flavour, i just love the lovely taste of it melting in my mouth with a cup of tea. I once asked by a fan about if she can substitute the fresh orange juice with the pasteurized orange juice? yes you can make this recipe with pasteurized orange juice, but i prefer the taste of fresh orange juice with the orange zest flavour.

Can i add fruits to these orange muffins recipe?

Yes, add any type of chopped fruits or a normal sized fruits like red or blue cranberries, raspberries or even dried raisins. Also you can add chocolate chipps to this muffin recipe.

Notes

• Preheat oven at 220C/ 420F , the baking of these degrees should be for just 5 minutes then reduce heat to 180C/ 356F. This step will double your muffins in size and make it more fluffy than cupcakes.
• Add the sugar amount you like, i sometimes add 3/4 cup for extra sweeten.
• Before squeezing your orange, peel of the orange zest; take only the orange colours peel because the white one will gives a batterness to your batter.
• All the ingredients must be at room temperature, the liquid, eggs and butter, so you have a smooth batter at the end.
• Always bake any type of muffins or cupcake into a preheated oven, if you place the muffin into a cold oven it will take longer and may effect your muffin quality.
• Use any muffin liners, silicone, parchment paper or muffin liners.
