Orange Blueberry Oatmeal Muffins Recipe

These muffins were born of necessity. I accidentally bought a box of tangerines with seeds! I hate seeds in my oranges. I think everyone does. Not one to be wasteful I bought myself a hand juicer (that I don't know how to use properly) and juiced at least 20 tangerines. Before juicing I zested a few of them as well. Fresh squeezed orange juice is amazing. Nothing in the world like it. It's a mouthful of fresh deliciousness.

These muffins are super moist and delicious. I think they would be delicious with cranberries instead of blueberries as well. I also think the topping is not strictly necessary.

 Ingredients:
1 cup uncooked oats
1 cup fresh squeezed orange juice
3 cups flour
1 cup sugar
4 tsps baking soda
1 tsp salt
1 cup canola oil
3 eggs beaten
1 1/2 cups frozen blueberries
1 tbsp orange zest
1/3 cup sugar
1 tsp cinnamon

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Grease 2 muffin tins.
2. Mix orange juice and oats and set aside.
3. Combine dry ingredients. Make a well in the center of the bowl and add wet ingredients. Mix only until combined. Fold in blueberries and zest.
4. Divide evenly among 2 muffin tins. Sprinkle with cinnamon sugar recipe. Bake for 15 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. I rotated my pans at 8 minutes to ensure even baking.
