Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 0.75 cups Sugar
- 0.5 cups Hazelnuts, toasted and chopped
- 1 tablespoons Orange zest
- 0.5 cups Orange juice, freshly squeezed
- 0.25 cups Milk
- 0.25 cups Vegetable oil
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease it with non-stick spray.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, ground cinnamon, and sugar until well combined.
Stir in the chopped hazelnuts and orange zest, ensuring they are evenly distributed in the dry mixture.
In a separate medium bowl, combine the orange juice, milk, vegetable oil, egg, and vanilla extract. Whisk the wet ingredients together until smooth.
Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour the wet mixture into it. Stir gently with a spatula or spoon until just combined. Avoid overmixing to prevent dense muffins.
Evenly distribute the batter among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 16-18 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool in the tin for 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve the muffins warm or at room temperature. Enjoy!
