Blood Orange Muffins
"A recent trip to the farmers' market inspired this recipe. It can be made into muffins or small loaves and has both the distinctive blood orange flavor as well as a mild sweetness. Best of all, these muffins pack in a lot of addictive flavor while still being very nutritious and healthy."

I found the batter to be extremely dense and dry, so I added more orange juice and oil. The consistency was like silly putty. The muffins are an unappealing grey colour and don’t have much flavour. They are also almost gluey when you chew them. I wouldn’t recommend. -
I'm not sure if the author of this recipe left out an ingredient or two. The batter looked more like a thick dough and even after doctoring it up- it just didn't look right. I added at least another 1/4 cup oil, more OJ, honey, salt and sugar but it came out more like a whole wheat brownie. Great idea though
