Tips

  • To ensure fluffy muffins, whisk the egg whites until stiff peaks form before folding them into the batter.
  • If you don't have buttermilk, simply add 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to regular milk and let it sit for 5 minutes before using.
  • For a more intense orange flavor, use freshly squeezed orange juice and zest.
  • If you don't have almond flour, you can grind almonds in a food processor until they reach a fine consistency
  • Garnish the muffins with orange zest or chopped almonds before baking for an elegant touch.
  • To prevent the muffins from sticking, grease the muffin cups with cooking spray or use paper liners.
