We loved them! Not too sweet, but just right for breakfast. I used regular craisins & fresh OJ. Bitterness could be from pith in the zest. I will mix pecans into the batter next time. They almost burned, but the muffins were big & beautiful.

I don't know what kid would eat these. They were bitter, not very orange-y, and a waste of good craisins.

This is my go-to recipe for muffins when my husband wants to bring something in for breakfast for his employees. I leave out the nuts and add mini white choc. chips. I also use regular craisins as I think flavored Craisins are silly. DELICIOUS! Must use FRESH orange juice and zest or the recipe will seem bland. Never had an issue with the recipe. Turns out picture perfect every time *IF* you follow the recipe carefully.

I baked this as a coffee cake. Pre-greased the glass baking dish and increased the baking time to 40 minutes. Everyone loved it!
