Had some over ripe oranges on my counter and am isolating for covid-19 pandemic. Felt bad letting any food go to waste at this time. Used what I had on hand, only white all purpose flour and granola instead of oats. They turned out lovely! I feel good knowing I was able to avoid any food waste.

They were nice, although the dough was so dry had to keep adding liquid to moisten all the flour.

These muffins have a very good taste. I used the zest of one orange. I used only all purpose flour and old-fashioned oatmeal. I reduced the sugar to 1/2 cup and it's perfect. I omitted the salt. These muffins are so moist. 20 minutes of cooking was perfect. Thanks Recipe Junkie :) Made for Bargain Basement tag game
