Tender muffins packed with bright citrus and fragrant cardamom for a yummy snack.

# Ingredients You'll Need:

→ Dry Stuff

01 - Zest from one medium orange
02 - 8 grams baking powder
03 - 150 grams granulated sugar
04 - 2 grams ground cardamom
05 - 190 grams plain flour

→ Wet Stuff

06 - 75 milliliters melted butter, cooled down
07 - 120 milliliters fresh squeezed orange juice

# Detailed Preparation Steps:

01 - Heat your oven to 175°C and line a muffin pan with liners for 12 muffins.
02 - Whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, cardamom, and orange zest in a big bowl until even.
03 - In another bowl, mix up the melted butter, eggs, and orange juice till smooth.
04 - Pour the wet mix into the dry one and fold gently with a spatula. Don’t mix too long or you’ll lose the fluff.
05 - Fill muffin cups about 75 percent full with batter. Bake 18 to 20 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
06 - Let the muffins rest in the pan for a bit, then move them to a rack. Best served warm or room temp.

# Helpful Tips:

01 - For bolder flavor, try browning the butter before melting. You might want to add a crunchy sweet topping too. Keep in a sealed container at room temp for up to 3 days.
