Cardamom Muffins Recipe
- 1 1/2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cardamom
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup buttermilk
- 1/4 cup butter, melted
- 1 egg, beaten
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 1 tablespoon orange peel
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a 12-cup muffin pan.
- In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cardamom, and salt.
- In a large bowl, stir together the buttermilk, butter, egg, sugar, and orange peel until well-blended. Stir in the flour mixture until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling them about two-thirds full. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until a wooden pick inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean. Cool on a rack for 5 minutes. Remove to the rack to cool completely.
