Orange Almond Muffins
Tender orange-scented muffins made with almond flour and topped with sliced almonds.
Instructions
-
Step 1
Heat the oven to 190°C. Place paper liners in all 12 wells of the muffin pan.
-
Step 2
Whisk the all-purpose flour, almond flour, baking powder, and salt together in the large mixing bowl.
-
Step 3
Combine the sugar and orange zest in the medium mixing bowl, rubbing them together until the sugar is fragrant and lightly tinted.
-
Step 4
Whisk the eggs, orange juice, milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract into the orange sugar until evenly blended.
-
Step 5
Pour the wet mixture into the dry mixture. Fold just until no dry flour remains; a few small lumps are acceptable.
-
Step 6
Divide the batter evenly among the 12 lined wells and scatter the sliced almonds over the tops.
-
Step 7
Bake at 190°C until the tops are golden and a tester inserted in the center comes out without wet batter, 18 to 22 minutes. The centers should reach about 96°C.
-
Step 8
Cool the muffins in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer them to the wire rack and cool for at least 10 minutes before serving.
