Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 2.5 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 0.75 cups Granulated sugar
• 0.5 cups Orange marmalade
• 0.5 cups Unsalted butter (melted)
• 2 large Eggs
• 0.5 cups Milk
• 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 1 tablespoons Orange zest
• 2 tablespoons Optional: Powdered sugar (for dusting)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a standard 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease lightly with cooking spray.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and granulated sugar until well combined.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, whisk together the orange marmalade, melted butter, eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and orange zest until smooth.

Step 4

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently fold them together using a spatula. Be careful not to overmix; stir until just combined and no dry flour remains.

Step 5

Evenly divide the batter among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.

Step 6

Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 18–22 minutes, or until the tops are golden and a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.

Step 7

Remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool in the pan for 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 8

Once the muffins are cool, dust the tops with powdered sugar (optional) for an extra touch of sweetness.

Step 9

Serve the muffins fresh and enjoy! Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days.
