Ingredients
  • 2 cup All-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup Honey
  • 1/4 cup Sugar
  • 1/2 cup Orange juice
  • 2 teaspoon Baking powder
  • 1/3 cup Butter or margarine, melted
  • 1 teaspoon Baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
  • 2 ea Eggs
Directions
  1. 1
    Preheat oven to 375&# 194;°F (190ðC). Grease 12 muffin cups or line with paper liners.
  2. 2
    In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. 3
    In a separate mixing bowl, beat the eggs lightly.
  4. 4
    Add the honey, orange juice, melted butter, and vanilla extract to the beaten eggs. Whisk until well combined.
  5. 5
    Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently with a spoon or spatula just until the flour is moistened. Do not overmix; a few lumps are okay.
  6. 6
    Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full.
  7. 7
    Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. 8
    Allow muffins to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Note

Storage: Store cooled muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days, or in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. For longer storage, freeze wrapped individually for up to 3 months.

Substitutions: You can substitute the orange juice with apple juice or lemon juice for a different citrus flavor. Melted coconut oil can be used instead of butter for a dairy-free option.

Tip: Ensure the butter is fully melted but not hot when adding it to the egg mixture to prevent scrambling the eggs.
