Directions

1 Heat oven to 400º. Grease bottoms only of 12 medium muffin cups, 2 1/2x1 1/4 inches, or line with paper baking cups.
2 Beat milk, oil, juice concentrate, 2 teaspoons orange peel and the egg in large bowl until blended. Stir in flour, 1/2 cup sugar, the baking powder and salt all at once just until flour is moistened (batter will be lumpy). Fold in currants. Divide batter evenly among muffin cups. Mix 3 tablespoons sugar and 1 teaspoon orange peel; sprinkle over batter in cups.
3 Bake 20 to 25 minutes or until light golden brown. Immediately remove from pan.

Expert Tips

The secret to making tender muffins is to not overmix the batter. Just stir until all of the flour looks moistened, then gently fold in any remaining ingredients the recipe may call for.

I meant this was not a hard recipe to follow.

I made two double batches of these. I baked one batch for 25 min at 400 some came out burnt. I baked the other batch for 20 minutes on 400. Not as many turned out burnt. The recipe calls for 20-25 min I would do the 20 min. If not done keep checking every 2 minutes. I make them for Christmas presents. I was not a hard recipe.
