Orange poppy seed muffins

Preheat the oven to 200 C / Gas mark 6 / Fan 180 C. Line a muffin tin with paper cases, or grease with a little oil.

Mix together the dry ingredients in a large bowl. In a separate bowl, mix together the wet ingredients. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients all at once, and then gently fold together using a rubber spatula. Do not overmix; scrape up from the bottom of the bowl to gently fold together until the mixture is just moistened.

Spoon the muffin mixture into the prepared tin, filling the cups full (fill 2/3 full for smaller muffins). Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until a knife inserted in the centre of a muffin comes out clean. Remove from tin and cool on a wire rack.
