Orange Muffins

Makes 12 servings

1 3/4 c. all-purpose flour
4 tsps sugar
2 tsps baking powder
2 tbsp flax seed
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 c. fat-free milk
1/2 c. orange juice
2 tsps grated orange zest
1 large egg
4 tsps unsalted butter, melted

1. Preheat the oven to 400F; spray 12-cup muffin tin with nonstick spray
2. In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. In a small bowl, combine the milk, orange juice, orange zest, egg, and butter. Pour over the flour mixture, stirring until just blended (do not over-mix).
3. Spoon the batter into the cups, filling each about two-thirds full. Bake until a toothpick inserted in the muffins comes out clean and the muffins are golden brown, 20-25 minutes. Cool in the pan on a rack 5 minutes; remove from the pan and serve hot.

So as I was typing this I realized I made these muffins without the butter last night. They still taste pretty good - maybe a little dry but okay. Next time I will be sure to remember the butter.
