Tiptree Muffins
Yields 9 large muffins
1 large egg, lightly beaten
1 cup milk
4 Tbsp vegetable oil
1 cup bran
Tiptree Apricot Preserve
1 Tbsp baking powder
3 Tbsp granulated sugar
Grated zest of 1 orange
1 cup unbleached, all-purpose flour
Preheat oven to 400°F. Line muffin tin with If You Care Unbleached Large Baking Cups. Alternatively, you can also use the baking cups on a flat baking sheet.
Combine beaten egg, milk, oil, and bran in a medium bowl. Let stand 15 minutes. In a separate bowl, mix flour, baking powder, sugar and orange zest. Add this to bran mixture. Combine gently only until dry ingredients are moistened. Fill baking cups halfway with mixture. Add a teaspoon of Tiptree Apricot Preserve to each one. Cover with remaining mixture. Bake 20-30 minutes, or until toothpick inserted into center comes out clean.
