Very delicious muffin! I have a muffin recipe that is similar in nature but yours differs with the addition of the orange marmalade and the streusel topping. Really enjoyed this as a breakfast treat and then froze the rest for breakfasts to come with the kids going back to school. Thanks for sharing your recipe. Glad I tagged it in the Zaar Cookbook tag game.
