Simple muffins with azahar aroma and grated orange peel

This weekend I made basic muffins, but with special taste. The most important ingredient was azahar aroma (made from orange and lemon blossom); usually used when preparing cakes in Moroccan style. In addition, I added grated orange peel too.

The recipe is simple: 2 cups of flour (I mixed 1 1/2 cup of all-purpose flour with 1/2 cup of whole grain flour), 3/4 cup of brown sugar, 1 tablespoon of baking powder, a bit of salt, two beaten eggs, mixed with azahar aroma, vanilla extract, 1/2 cup of yogurt, grated orange peel and 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil. Once all ingredients were mixed, I added a bit of milk (about 2 or 3 tablespoons), because the batter was too dry. There was enough batter for 7 medium size muffins. Bake for about half an hour, in preheated oven.

Here you can see these delicious muffins - decorated and ready to be served.
