The orange muffin is a fragrant, citrus-infused baked treat often enjoyed in American cuisine as a breakfast option or snack. Made with a blend of flour, sugar, eggs, and freshly squeezed orange juice or zest, it delivers a burst of natural orange flavor in every bite. Variations may include mix-ins like nuts, dried cranberries, or a glaze for added sweetness. While it contains essential nutrients such as vitamin C from the oranges and a moderate amount of fiber if whole-grain flour is used, the muffin’s healthiness depends on its preparation. Traditional recipes can be high in refined sugars and fats, which contribute to its tender texture and rich taste. For a more nutritious version, some recipes substitute healthier ingredients like honey, yogurt, or olive oil. Orange muffins are a delightful balance of sweet and tart, making them a versatile addition to any menu.
