The last thing I expected to find in a beautifully illustrated knitting book was a pantry recipe. What a pleasant surprise! Greetings from Knit Café
Muffins:
2 c flour
1/2 c uncooked oatmeal, not instant
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 c brown sugar
2 large eggs, slightly beaten
2/3 c orange juice
zest of 1 large orange
1/4 c honey
5 – 1/2 T butter, melted
Icing:
1 – 1 1/2 c powdered sugar
1 T orange juice
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 12 cup muffin pan well, or line with muffin papers.
Combine flour, oatmeal, baking powder, salt and brown sugar in a large mixing bowl and stir. Add the eggs, orange juice, orange zest, honey, and melted butter and stir just until mixed. Spoon the batter into the muffin cups about 2/3 full. Bake 20 – 25 minutes or until very light golden.
To make icing: Combine powdered sugar with orange juice until a smooth glaze is formed. Drizzle over warm muffins. Muffins are best eaten warm.
Makes 12 muffins.
These sound yummy. I’m new to baking. Could these be frozen?
I’m so glad I found your blog.
yes, definitely! In fact, I think that they are just as yummy cold as they are hot so freezing them probably won’t hurt ‘em a bit as far a flavor goes, and they are dense enough that I think the texture would hold up, too.
