Anytime Orange-Date Muffins
Cool: 5 mins
Bake: 18 mins at 400°F
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 beaten egg
- 1/2 cup butter, melted
- 2 teaspoons finely shredded orange peel
- 1/2 cup orange juice
- 1/2 cup finely snipped pitted dates
Directions
1. Grease twelve 2-1/2-inch muffin cups or line with paper bake cups. Set aside.
2. In a medium mixing bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, soda, and salt. Make a well in center or mixture.
3. In another mixing bowl, combine the egg, the melted butter, orange peel, and juice. Add egg mixture all at once to the dry mixture. Stir until just moistened (batter should be lumpy). Fold in dates. Spoon the muffin batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling each muffin cup 2/3 full with the batter.
