Directions
Note: a tin of broken segments is less expensive than whole segments. About a cup of fresh orange pieces could be used.
Sift flour with other dry ingredients.
Cut in Margarine. Combine egg and milk, and add all at once to dry ingredients -- mix only until moistened.
Fold in orange pieces and break them up more if batter seems to dry at first.
Fill greased muffin tins ¾ full.
Bake at 350℉ (180℃) for 20 to 25 minutes.
Remove from muffin tins while still warm.
Dip tops in melted butter and sugar-cinnamon mixture.
Makes 12 large muffins.
