Pro Tips for Even Better Muffins
Use Fresh Oranges: Fresh juice and zest give the brightest flavor; bottled juice won’t be as vibrant.
- Don’t Overmix: Stir just until ingredients are combined for a light, tender crumb.
- Taste the Jam: Spread The Love Raspberry Artisan Jam adds a swirl of rich fruit flavor — tweak the amount to your sweet preference.
- Storage: These muffins keep well in an airtight container — try reheating slightly for that fresh-baked taste.
These small tips help you perfect texture and flavor every time you bake.
