ORANGE-SCENTED ALMOND AND OLIVE OIL MUFFINS



Orange-Scented Almond and Olive Oil Muffins image

I love to take these muffins to Jade's school for breakfast for her classmates to share. One of the ingredients is almond flour, which I love to use for baking because it adds flavor and protein to replace some of the usual white flour. Almond flour also makes the muffins light and nutty and pairs so well with the sweetness of orange juice and zest. Make a batch of these, freeze them, and then reheat as needed in a low oven.
