Mini-Orange Muffins


I love these tiny little muffins with the frittata recipe posted below. The citrus adds a nice contrast to the heavier flavors. I also love the fact that these only take about 7 minutes to bake!

Ingredients:

2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup sugar
3 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 Tablespoon orange zest
3/4 cup orange juice (medium or low pulp is best)
1/3 cup canola or vegetable oil
1 large egg

1. Heat oven to 400ºF. Grease bottoms only of a 24 miniature muffin tin. 
2. In a medium bowl, combine flour, baking powder, salt, sugar, and orange zest.
3. In a small bowl, combine orange juice, oil, and egg. Add to flour mixture and stir until just mixed; the batter will be lumpy.
4. Divide batter evenly into muffin tins, filling to the top. Bake at 400ºF for about 6-7 minutes, but checking at about 5 for doneness, until toothpick inserted comes out clean. Cool 1 minute then remove from pan. 

Makes 24 miniature muffins.
