Delicately fragrant Orange Cardamom Muffins for your midweek treat! Moist, flavorful, tender, and easy to make, these muffins can be cooling on your counter in just 30 minutes. Just give them a try!
This recipe is beyond simple. Grease a muffin pan and preheat your oven. Whisk together the wet ingredients in a large mixing bowl, then combine the dry ingredients in another. Stir the dry ingredients into the wet ones until just combined. A good rule of thumb is not to overmix your batter. Spoon the batter into the muffin pan and sprinkle with sparkling sugar. Bake the muffins until they are puffed and golden brown. Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a cooling rack. Enjoy these muffins warm with a cup of coffee for the perfect snack.
To make the Orange Cardamom Muffins, you will need the following ingredients:
Preheat the oven to 350 °F. Lightly grease a muffin pan, or line it with paper liners.
In a large bowl, whisk together ¾ cup granulated sugar, 2 eggs, ½ cup vegetable oil, ½ cup milk, ¼ cup orange juice, zest of 1 large orange, and 1 teaspoon ground cardamom.
In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, ½ teaspoon baking powder, and ½ teaspoon salt.
Stir the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined.
Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin pan. Top the muffin batter evenly with sparkling sugar.
Bake for 20-22 minutes until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Cool slightly and serve warm!
