¾ cup applesauce
½ cup vegetable oil
½ cup real maple syrup

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use fresh oranges and pecans.
  • Be sure to zest the oranges before juicing them. The zest adds a lot of flavor to the muffins.
  • If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of white vinegar or lemon juice to 1 cup of milk. Let it sit for 5 minutes before using.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in tough muffins.
  • Fill the muffin cups about 2/3 full. Overfilling can result in muffins that are too dense.
  • Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Let the muffins cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

These Orange Pecan Muffins are a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast or snack. They're perfect for any occasion.
