Coconut-Orange Mini Tea Muffins image

These delicious little orange-y, buttery, coconutty muffins are from the 1833 Umpleby House Inn in New Hope, Bucks County, Pennsylvania. They're so easy and quick to whip up! I adapted the recipe to make mini-muffins, since that's my preference, but the original directions for making standard-size muffins are included, also. Recipe makes 24 mini-muffins or 12 standard muffins (and has the distinction of being one of the rare baking recipes where the yield is accurate!)

ORANGE TEA MUFFINS



Orange Tea Muffins image

Because they're so rich, I usually make these muffins for special occasions-brunches and breakfasts mainly. They're good at all hours, though, as a snack with tea or coffee. My husband and I plus our 14-year-old son live in a suburban area. Luckily, our property backs up against a farm. Last year, we were excited to see deer in the yard-two adults and four babies. I learned my way around the kitchen by trial and error. So having a recipe featured in Country Woman is a real treat-when we were married 18 years ago, my husband knew more about cooking than I did!
