Orange Muffins

I love the flavor of oranges and what better way to start off your day than with a muffin that's packed full of orange flavor and a hint of cinnamon.

Orange Muffins

1/2 cup butter, softened

1/2 cup sugar

1/4 cup brown sugar

2 large eggs

1/2 cup sour cream

1/2 tsp orange extract

1/2 tsp vanilla

zest of 1 orange

1 tsp baking soda

1 tsp baking powder

1 tsp cinnamon

1/2 tsp salt

juice of 1/2 of an orange

1/4 cup milk

1 3/4 cups flour

Cream together butter and sugars.  Stir in eggs, extracts and sour cream.  Add in juice and milk and gradually add in the dry ingredients.  Scoop into greased or lined muffin cups.  Bake for 25 minutes at 350°.  Allow to cool before icing.  Or you can just eat them warm without the icing.

Orange icing

3/4 cup powdered sugar

juice of 1/2 of an orange

Stir together and spoon over the muffins.
