I had never made orange type muffins before so this was different for me. I cut the recipe in half and followed the recipe as written other then I used jarred zest and used a tablespoon. I also didn't make the glaze because I like plain muffins so the review is just on the muffins. They were moist and tasty. Mine cooked for 20 minutes. Made for Spring PAC 2012
