Pomegranate Orange Muffins

February 25, 2014 by Kay 6 Comments

Pomegranate Orange Muffins are little morsels packed full of fruity flavor, the seeds pop in your mouth when you bit into the muffin. The orange juice, orange zest and powdered sugar compliment the pomegranate well. You will find it hard to eat just one of these.

This is a healthy muffin using applesauce in the recipe in place of oil or butter. Trust me, you won’t miss the oil or the butter and since they are a healthy version you can eat two 🙂

These are not only good for breakfast, but for lunch or an afternoon snack. Definitely a kid pleaser.

    This looks very yummy, and I love how it is packed with healthy goodness… How much sugar do you add?

      Crystelle,
      Thank you for contacting me about the amount of sugar, I see it turned up as a question mark on the recipe. I have corrected the mistake. The recipe takes 1/3 cup of sugar.

    I have never seen pomegranates in recipes except salads, of course. This sounds interesting! I love orange muffins and pomegranates so it’s bound to be good! Thanks for sharing at the Party On The Porch. Blessings, D@TheShadyPorch
