Number Of Ingredients 14

3/4 cup (150 g/5.3 oz.) granulated sugar
1 tablespoon orange zest
1 3/4 cups (250 g/8.8 oz.) all-purpose flour, sifted
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 large eggs
1/3 cup (75 g) unsalted butter, melted and cooled, OR neutral oil such as canola
1/4 cup (60 ml) sour cream
1/4 cup (60 ml) whole milk
1/2 cup (120 ml) freshly squeezed and strained orange juice
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup add-in of your choice: dark or white chocolate chips (, berries, raisins, nuts)
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1-2 tablespoons orange juice

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 190C/375F. Grease 12 muffin cups or line them with liner papers.
  • In a large bowl, toss together sugar and orange zest. Add flour, baking powder, and salt, and mix to combine. In another medium bowl, whisk eggs with melted butter, sour cream, milk, orange juice, and vanilla extract until well combined. Make a well in the dry ingredients and pour the wet ingredients into it, then stir with a wooden spoon or rubber spatula just until combined. Do not over mix. Fold in add-ins.
  • Divide batter evenly between muffin cups (almost all the way to the top). Bake for 15-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the muffin comes out clean. Allow to cool for 10 minutes, then remove muffins from the tin and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • To make the orange drizzle topping: In a small bowl, sift powdered sugar. Add orange juice, a bit at a time, and whisk until you get a thick yet pourable consistency. Once muffins have cooled, pour glaze over the tops using a tablespoon, letting it drizzle down the sides.
  • Muffins are best the same day they are made, but can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for an additional day. Muffins can be frozen for up to 2 months.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Prioritize organization by measuring and preparing all ingredients before starting the baking process.
  • Fresh Ingredients: Prioritize high-quality, fresh oranges for the best flavor. Freshly squeezed orange juice is preferred over store-bought. Zest the orange carefully to avoid the bitter white pith.
  • Muffin Tins: Grease or line muffin tins with paper liners to prevent muffins from sticking and ensure easy removal.
  • Creaming: Creaming butter and sugar together is vital for achieving a light and fluffy texture. Cream until the mixture is pale yellow and fluffy.
  • Mixing: Avoid overmixing the batter as it can result in dense muffins. Mix until just combined to maintain a light and tender crumb.
  • Baking: Bake muffins at the temperature specified in the recipe and avoid opening the oven door during baking to prevent the muffins from deflating.
  • Testing: Use a toothpick or skewer to test the center of a muffin for doneness. If it comes out clean, the muffins are ready. Overbaking can dry out the muffins, so be careful not to overbake them.
