Got this recipe from my Mom. It's easy to make and the muffins are delicious. It sounds like a strange combination but believe me they are very good.
Ingredients:
1 whole orange
1/2 cup chopped pitted dates
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup fresh orange juice
1 egg
1/2 cup margarine or 1/2 cup butter
1 1/2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 cup sugar
Directions:
1. Cut orange in pieces and remove seeds. Do NOT peel. Drop into blender or food processor & blend until rind is finely ground. In a large bowl, mix juice, dates, egg & butter. Add the orange mixture & blend until well mixed.
2. Sift flour & remaining ingredients into a bowl. Pour orange mixture over this and stir lightly until mixed through.
3. Fill greased or paper lined muffin tins about 3/4 full. Bake at 400F for 15 to 18 minutes.
