Blueberry Orange Muffins



While reading through one of my many parenting magazines and found a recipe for blueberry orange muffins that sounded scrumptious --- but when I actually went to make them, I couldn't find the recipe! So here is the replacement recipe, and it's a good one. I followed the advice of some folks and added vanilla and 1/4 c more orange juice. Delicious! 

  • Ingredients:
  • 1 cup quick rolled oats
  • 1 1/4 cup orange juice
  • 1 teaspoon grated orange zest
  • 1 cup vegetable oil
  • 3 eggs, beaten
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 4 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 3 cups fresh blueberries
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla

  • Topping:
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped nuts
  • 3 tablespoons sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

Directions:

Mix oats, orange juice and zest; blend in oil and eggs; set aside. Stir together flour, sugar, baking powder, salt and baking soda. Add oat mixture; mix lightly. Fold in blueberries. Spoon batter into paper-lined muffin tins, filling two-thirds full. Combine topping ingredients; sprinkle over batter. Bake at 400 degrees F for about 15 to 18 minutes, or until lightly browned.
