Citrus Ricotta Muffins With Zesty Streusel
- 2-1/4 cups All-purpose Flour
- 3/4 cups Sugar
- 2-1/2 teaspoons Baking Powder
- 1/4 teaspoons Salt
- 3/4 cups Grapeseed Oil Or Vegetable Oil
- 1/2 Tablespoons Lemon Zest
- 3/4 cups Lowfat Ricotta
- 3 Tablespoons Orange Juice
- 2 Tablespoons Lemon Juice
- 1 whole Egg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 1. Preheat oven to 375u0b0F. Prepare a 12-count muffin tin by spraying it with cooking spray.
- 2. In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Add in oil. Remove 1/2 cup of this mixture and stir the lemon zest into it. Set it aside for streusel.
- 3. Make a well in the middle of the remaining flour mixture in the large bowl. In a separate bowl, whisk ricotta, citrus juices, egg and vanilla extract together. Fold ricotta mixture into the big bowl of flour mix until just blended.
- 4. Divide batter between muffin tins. Crumble zesty streusel evenly among muffins. Bake for 14-16 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the middle of one comes out clean. Remove the pan from the oven and let muffins cool for 5 minutes. Enjoy!
