Coconut-Orange Mini Tea Muffins
These delicious little orange-y, buttery, coconutty muffins are from the 1833 Umpleby House Inn in New Hope, Bucks County, Pennsylvania. They're so easy and quick to whip up! I adapted the recipe to make mini-muffins, since that's my preference, but the original directions for making standard-size muffins are included, also. Recipe makes 24 mini-muffins or 12 standard muffins (and has the distinction of being one of the rare baking recipes where the yield is accurate!)

DIRECTIONS
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Grease 24 mini-muffin cups (however, my non-stick baking pan doesn't require greasing -- ) In a large bowl, mix flour, sugar, baking powder and salt.
- In a separate bowl, combine melted butter, orange peel, orange juice and eggs until well blended.
- Add coconut, then stir into flour mixture until just combined.
- Do not overmix.
- Spoon into muffin cups and sprinkle a little extra coconut on the tops of each muffin.
- Bake approximately 15 minutes, or until lightly golden around the edges.
- Or, if you wish to make standard-size muffins, bake at 375°F for approximately 22 to 25 minutes.
