Orange Glazed Muffins

This recipe goes back to a Hastings, MN hospital auxiliary cookbook from the 1970's. The muffins are delicious "plain", but the brown sugar/citrus glaze poured over them when they are hot from the oven gives them a delicious, sweet, moist texture and flavor. Read more I am a sucker for anything citrus, so these were a keeper as soon as I tasted them. See less
Ingredients
- Muffins: shopping list
- 1 cup butter, softened shopping list
- 1 cup sugar shopping list
- 1/2 cup brown sugar shopping list
- 2 eggs shopping list
- grated rind of 1 orange shopping list
- juice of 1 orange shopping list
- 1 teaspoon baking soda shopping list
- 1/2 teaspoon salt shopping list
- 1 cup buttermilk shopping list
- 2 cups flour (Note: depending on how juicy your orange is, you may want to add 2 to 4 tablespoons additional flour if the batter seems a bit too runny) shopping list
- Glaze: shopping list
- grated rind of 1 orange shopping list
- juice of 1 orange shopping list
- 1/2 cup brown sugar shopping list
How to make it
- In a large bowl, cream together butter and both sugars.
- Add eggs, rind and juice, mixing well.
- Dissolve baking soda and salt in buttermilk - use a 2 cup measuring cup, as the soda will make the buttermilk foam up a lot.
- Add flour and buttermilk/soda alternately to the creamed mixture.
- Pour batter into well-buttered muffin cups to 3/4 full.
- Bake at 400 degrees for 18 to 24 minutes, until tops spring back when poked.
- While muffins are baking, heat glaze ingredients in a small pan, cooking until sugar dissolves (I just use the microwave).
- When muffins are removed from the oven, pour hot glaze over them immediately.
- Allow muffins to remain in tins about 5 minutes, then remove and finish cooling on a rack (or serve immediately).
- If there is any leftover glaze, spoon it over the muffins again after removing them from the pan.
- These freeze very nicely.
