Blueberry-Orange Muffins
This recipe was given to me some time ago, and I've used it often since. In fact, it's so good that it won first prize at a county fair! Blueberries are plentiful here in the Midwest, and this is a delicious way to prepare them. —Irene Parry, Kenosha, Wisconsin

This is the second time I’ve made these. In spite of problems with my oven,, they’ve turned out great. I substitute 1 cup of frozen cranberries (halved) for blueberries I use double the orange zest which I keep in the freezer from large oranges that my husband Ioves. I also cut down on the sugar on top & still had some left over. My neighbours seem to like them too, so they are very much a keeper.
Great muffins! I love the texture the oats give them.
Had family stay with us over the weekend, and I made these beauties for part of my breakfast bars. They were delicious, tender and a snap to prepared.
LOVED these! Easy to make and bake up great! We froze a few bags of them for later so we can enjoy them during busy weeks.
This may be one of my favorite muffin recipes ever--and I make a LOT of muffins! Tender crumb, great taste, easy to make! The only changes I made were to omit the orange peel (I didn't have any), added a 1/2 teaspoon of orange flavoring and a teaspoon of vanilla, and left the nuts out of the cinnamon sugar topping. I also baked them in jumbo muffin tins and got 12 eye-appealing and wonderful tasting muffins. I will definitely be making these muffins again!
I followed the recipe exactly as it was written. The muffins are good, but they have too much oil. I can taste the oil in the muffins, next time I'm going to substitute applesauce or reduce the amount of oil. It also took me 25 minutes to cook, not 15 to 18.
Great recipe. They are delicious and nutritious. Everyone loved them. This is definitely a keeper
My muffins are baking now! :) I Only have rolled oats, but I had a can of orange juice concentrate . It yielded 1 1/2 cups liquid when defrosted, so I just used that figuring the extra liquid will help process the less processed oats *hopefully fingers crossed*. I also chose to use allspice vs cinnamon just cause I like it better & have kinda been obsessed lately. ...& apparently I left out the baking soda...joys of parenting a toddler :) Lets hope they turn out as amazin as they smell :)update: they taste great! wouldn't even know I forgot the baking soda :) Made 24 muffins & 1 small loaf.
Absolutely delicious! I was looking for an orange quick bread recipe to make for Sunday breakfast & saw this one. Since I had blueberries on hand that I needed to use up, I made these! Got rave reviews from the whole family, even the non-berry lovers. The only thing I omitted was the nuts in the topping. Didn't have any on hand. They were perfect without them! Will definitely make often!
Very flavorful and moist. I used fresh orange from our tree. This will be my go to recipe for blueberry muffins. It makes alot, so I freeze most for later.
