TWD Rewind: Orange Berry Muffins


I was very excited to see that Laurie, the creator and leader of Tuesdays with Dorie gave us a rewind week for Thanksgiving! I had wanted to make the Fluted Ricotta and Polenta Cake but unfortunately I couldn't get to the store it time so I decided on Orange Berry Muffins which was the 4th recipe chosen by the Tuesdays with Dorie bakers. The recipe calls for blueberries but I have a giant bag of cranberries in my fridge so I subbed them. The muffins had a good light consistency but I can't say that I was very impressed with the orange flavor. This might have to do with the orange I used- I'll probably try these again with a nicer, more fragrant orange and maybe double the zest. I'm probably going to end up rewinding quite a few other recipes from Baking From My Home to Yours for Thanksgiving Day- my only problem is narrowing it down to two or three favorites!

Rewinds are fun. I haven't made these yet, but they are on my list when we have rewinds.

Those look really tasty, sorry they weren't your fav.
