Dairy- and Gluten-Free Zucchini Orange Chocolate Chip Muffins image

My favorite muffin recipe is a chocolate chip orange zucchini bread recipe found on Allrecipes! But when I had to cut out dairy and gluten, I had to get creative to get the same satisfaction out of a healthier version. These turned out great! Be sure to add the glaze - it really makes the muffin.

CHOCOLATE CHIP ORANGE MUFFINS

Categories     Bread

Yield 12 muffins

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
1 egg
1/2 cup milk
1/4 cup vegetable oil
3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 1/2 to 2 tsp grated orange peel

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400F. Stir together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Beat the egg and add to flour mixture. Add milk & veg. oil, stirring only to moisten flour. Mix in chocolate chips and orange peel. Fill greased muffin tins (2 3/4 inches in diameter) 2/3 full. Bake 20-25 minutes.

  • To achieve a moist and fluffy texture, make sure all your ingredients are at room temperature before starting.
  • Use fresh oranges for the best flavor. If you don't have fresh oranges, you can use 1/2 cup of orange juice concentrate mixed with 1/2 cup of water.
  • Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will help incorporate air into the batter, resulting in a lighter muffin.
  • Gradually beat in the eggs one at a time, making sure to mix well after each addition.
  • Combine the dry ingredients in a separate bowl and whisk to combine. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Overmixing will result in tough muffins.
  • Fold in the chocolate chips and orange zest. Be careful not to overmix, as this can cause the gluten in the flour to develop and make the muffins tough.
  • Fill the muffin cups about 2/3 full. If you fill them too full, the muffins will rise over the top of the cups and bake unevenly.
  • Bake the muffins at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Chocolate chip orange muffins are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. With their moist and fluffy texture and zesty orange flavor, these muffins are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you're looking for a sweet and satisfying snack, give these chocolate chip orange muffins a try.
