GLAZED
HONEY-ORANGE OATMEAL MUFFINS
Nonstick cooking spray
1 cup uncooked rolled oats
2/3 cup low-fat buttermilk
1/2 cup plus 1 teaspoon orange juice
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons honey
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 teaspoons grated orange zest
1 egg
1-1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 cup wheat germ
2-1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Coat 12 medium muffin cups with nonstick cooking spray, or line
with paper baking cups.
In a large bowl, combine oats, buttermilk, 1/2 cup of the orange
juice, 1/4 cup of honey, the oil and 1-1/2 teaspoons of the orange
zest; let stand 10 minutes. Blend in egg.
In medium bowl, combine flour, wheat germ, baking powder, baking
soda and salt. Stir flour mixture into oat mixture until just combined.
Fill muffin cups nearly to top. Bake 18 to 20 minutes, until toothpick
inserted in center comes out with a few moist crumbs clinging. Cool
in pan on wire rack for 5 minutes.
In small bowl, combine remaining honey, orange juice, and orange
zest. To glaze, dip tops of muffins into mixture, letting excess
drip off.
