- Mix in apple sauce, yogurt and orange juice.
- Stir in your flour, baking powder & soda then fold in your orange zest.
- Fill 10 muffin cups with batter and bake for 16-18 minutes.
- While muffins are cooling make your glaze, in a small bowl mix your icing sugar and fresh squeezed orange juice together, stir in orange zest.
- Using a spoon top muffins with glaze, I found it worked best topping the muffin with glaze just before you are ready to eat it, the glaze will store well with some saran wrap over it.
- Makes 10 muffins at 3 smart points each (2 points plus) if you do not want the glaze the muffins are 2 SP each, store in a sealed container and best in fridge after a day or two.
