Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Delicious Orange Oatmeal Muffins.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C). While the oven warms up, prepare your muffin tin by greasing it or lining it with paper muffin liners to make cleanup a breeze later on.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the quick cooking oats, all-purpose flour, 1/4 cup of white sugar, baking powder, and raisins. Give it a good stir to mix everything together and set it aside for now.
Step 3
In another bowl, beat the egg and then add the grated orange zest and canola oil. Whisk in the milk until everything is well combined. Now, gently fold in the dry ingredients from the first bowl until just mixed. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are perfectly fine!
Step 4
Evenly divide the batter among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full to allow for rising during baking.
Step 5
Pop the muffin tin into the preheated oven and bake for about 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean. The aroma of orange and oats will fill your kitchen, making it hard to wait!
Step 6
Once baked, remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool for a moment. Meanwhile, mix the orange juice with 1 tablespoon of sugar until the sugar dissolves. Drizzle about 1 teaspoon of this sweet orange mixture over each muffin for an extra burst of flavor.
Step 7
Carefully remove the muffins from the tin and let them cool slightly on a wire rack. Enjoy these delightful muffins warm or at room temperature, perfect for breakfast or a snack!
