TWD Rewind: Orange Berry Muffins

February 9, 2008 at 11:05 am | Posted in breakfast things, muffins/quick breads, sweet things, tuesdays with dorie | 12 Comments

When I put up my first Tuesdays with Dorie post earlier in the week, I mentioned that I’d like to make the recipes the group tried out before I joined. This morning I decided to start with the simplest one, the first in the book: Orange Berry Muffins.

I may be a little groggy at 8:00 on a Saturday morning, but I had no trouble putting these together. A few ingredients, mixed by hand…twenty-five minutes later, breakfast is ready. The best part is they’re loaded with berries!

This recipe was Michelle’s choice and she has it posted on her blog, Sugar and Spice. It is from the book Baking: From My Home to Yours by Dorie Greenspan.

They are now my go-to muffins. I have made them 4 times total since we made them for TWD. They are so good, and super easy. I second TW, your muffin liners are awesome! Where did you get them??

Thanks for the comments! For everyone who asked about the muffin liners…they are something I bought in Sydney (I know that doesn’t help out too many of you). I have seen them in a few spots here, but I purchased mine at a chain called House. They were about $7 and are made by a company called Fox Run. Maybe you can find them online?

Michelle–I sprinkled my muffins with a little powdered sugar after they’d cooled a bit. I have a tiny sieve (it’s really a tea strainer) that makes a really fine dusting.

The muffins look so morish, I cannot wait to sink my teeth into one of them. I am inspired by your beautiful pictures.

Thank you

Those look beautiful! I’m planning to catch up on posts too. I’ve started with the brownies. I’m hoping to make these once blueberries are in season and I can use fresh ones from the garden! You have great photography skills.
