Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F. Spray a muffin pan with non-stick cooking spray or use paper liners.
  2. Whisk in a large bowl, buttermilk, egg, canola oil, brown sugar, orange zest and vanilla until well combined.

  5. Fill muffin cups about ¾ full, and sprinkle each with a ½ teaspoon raw sugar, then bake for 16-18 minutes or until done. Take out the muffins and if desired, put a ½ teaspoon honey on the top of each muffin to soak in while staying in the pan for 10 minutes before removing.
