1
cup sifted unbleached white flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup raw wheat germ
1/4 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
1/4 cup (preferably orange blossom) honey
1 egg, beaten
Grated rind of 1 orange
1/2 cup freshly squeezed orange juice
Preheat
oven to 375°F. Butter a muffin tin. Sift the flour with the
baking powder, soda and salt. Add the wheat germ and set aside.
Cream
the butter, add the honey and beat until smooth and fluffy. Blend
in the egg, orange rind and orange juice. Add the dry ingredients
to the creamed mixture, stirring just until all the ingredients
are moist. (The batter will look lumpy.) |
