Tender, gossamer muffins, so full of flavor and goodness, these delicious muffins will be enjoyed by the most jaded appetites. The Orange Glaze is optional, but a lovely addition, for a brunch or luncheon buffet. 1/2 cup finely chopped walnuts is a nice optional.
1 egg
1 small orange, grated (about 6 tablespoons)
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup sour cream
1/4 cup oil
3/4 cup sugar
2 1/4 cups flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
Preheat oven to 400°. Have ready 12 paper-lined muffin cups.
In the large bowl of an electric mixer, beat together first 6 ingredients until blended. Add the flour and baking powder and beat just until blended. (Do not overbeat.)
Divide batter between 12 paper-lined muffin cups and bake in a 400° oven for about 22 to 25 minutes or until muffins are golden brown and a cake tester, inserted in center, comes out clean. Allow to cool in pan for 10 minutes, and then remove from pan, and continue cooling on a rack. Brush tops with Orange Glaze (optional). Yields 12 muffins.
Orange Glaze:
1 1/2 tablespoons orange juice
1/3 cup sifted powdered sugar
1 tablespoon finely grated orange peel
Stir together all the ingredients until blended.
