Steamed Orange Muffins

Steamed orange muffins recipeSteamed orange muffins with a refreshing taste of a fresh orange and apricot jam. This recipe is fairly simple and quick to make. Such dish will both amuse the kids and entertain the adults. Tastes especially good when served warm. These classic steamed muffins are soft, moist and filled with orange flavour. Even without the top crust as what you can get from oven-baked cakes, steamed muffins are light and tender.
