Orange Yogurt Muffins

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

In a medium saucepan over medium heat combine 1/2 cup orange zest, 1/4 cup sugar, 2 tablespoons orange juice and butter and heat until sugar is dissolved and butter is melted. Stir, remove from heat and set aside to cool.

In a medium bowl combine flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt and set aside.

Using an electric mixer in a large bowl combine eggs, yogurt, milk and the cooled orange zest mixture and stir on medium speed until blended. Gradually add in the flour mixture until combined.

Pour into a paper lined muffin tin (recipe makes roughly 16), filling each liner 2/3 full.

Bake for 20-25 minutes until tester comes out clean. Cool slightly in pan, and then remove to wire rack to cool.

To prepare glaze, combine confectioner’s sugar, 2 tablespoons orange juice, 1 teaspoon orange zest and a pinch of salt and stir until well combined. Drizzle on top of muffins or dip tops of muffins into glaze. Let glaze set before serving.
