Start your mornings off right with these refreshing muffins drizzled with a decadent glaze!
Believe me when I tell you that these are no ordinary muffins. That’s what I thought when I was watching them bake in the oven but boy was I wrong.
These babies are incredibly fluffy and moist from the sour cream, and they are packed with such bold orange flavor thanks to the copious amounts of orange zest and freshly squeezed orange juice. The zesty orange glaze just punches even more fresh orange flavor, giving you that nice sweetness in every bite. Even Jason, Mr. Non-Muffin Lover, loved these, and that says a whole lot!
So here’s how you make these awesome muffins:
Let’s start with the dry ingredients.
Then the wet –butter, sour cream, egg, orange juice and orange zest.
Pour the wet into the dry and give it a good stir, being careful not to overwork the batter.
Then we’ll pop them into the oven for about 16-18 minutes, letting them cool on a wire rack for about 10 minutes.
You can definitely serve them as is…
or you can make the zesty orange glaze…
and dip the muffin crowns into this awesome pool of orangey-sugary-goodness.
Orange Sour Cream Muffins with Zesty Orange Glaze
Yield: 11 muffins
Prep: 20 minutes minutes

Ingredients
- 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
- ⅔ cup sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup 1 stick unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 large egg
- ¼ cup freshly squeezed orange juice
- Zest of 1 orange
For the Zesty Orange Glaze
- 1 ½ cups confectioners’ sugar
- ¼ cup freshly squeezed orange juice
- 2 teaspoons orange zest
Instructions
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Line a 12-cup standard muffin tin with paper liners; set aside.
In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder and salt.
In a large glass measuring cup or another bowl, whisk together butter, sour cream, egg, orange juice and orange zest. Pour mixture over dry ingredients and stir using a rubber spatula just until moist.
Scoop the batter evenly into the muffin tray. Place into oven and bake for 16-18 minutes, or until a tester inserted in the center comes out clean.
To make the glaze, combine confectioners’ sugar, orange juice and orange zest. Whisk until smooth. If the glaze is too thin, add more confectioners’ sugar as needed.
When the muffins are done, cool for 10 minutes and dip the muffin crown into the glaze.
Allow glaze to set before serving.

This has been sitting on one of my Pinterest boards forever and I decided on a whim to make them this morning. Oh. My. Goodness. These are the best muffins I’ve ever had. They’re perfect. I can’t believe it’s taken me this long to make them!! Amazing!

Definite keeper recipe! Much better than another orange creamsicle muffin recipe I made. I added 1c white chocolate chips tossed w/ a Tbsp of the recipe’s flour instead of glazing them (no powdered sugar). Baked in a lined jumbo muffin tin @ 400 for the first 5 mins, then turned down to 375 for the next ~20 mins. Perfection! So satisfying!

I substituted the sour cream for 3/4 of a cup of Kefir Yogurt as I didn’t have sour cream and opted to go without the glaze and slightly less sugar and it was divine. The orange really lightens up the taste so be careful you’ll have eaten a handful without having realized it.

Elizabeth — April 27, 2020 @ 11:58 AM Reply
Tasted great but mine didn’t rise either. I’m an experienced baker and I have brand new baking powder. Wondering if these need the paper liners to pull themselves up in the muffin tin? That’s the only change I made – I sprayed the muffin tray with coconut oil since I didn’t have liners.

Shana — May 17, 2020 @ 2:12 PM Reply
I’ve read that fat can inhibit the rise in baked goods. I looked up the fat content in sour cream and it is 45 grams per 8 ounces. Whole milk has only 8 grams of fat per 8 ounces. Most muffin recipes I’ve seen have some sort of fluid (generally milk), which I’m assuming the sour cream stands in for in this recipe. – I wonder if raising the temperature to 425F for the first few minutes might help them rise a bit more. Then lower to finish. (A technique used in a cupcake recipe I came across on Sally’s Baking Addiction)

Fantastic recipe! I’ve been meaning to write a review. I can’t find fresh or frozen cranberries and had a bunch of raspberries so when I saw this recipe I decided instead of orange cranberry we’d try orange raspberry. So delicious! Even my daughter who “doesn’t like sweets” couldn’t get enough of them. The orange flavor is just right and I used the glaze which was a huge hit. It offset the tartness of the berries. Thanks for such an easy recipe, I’m making another batch today.

These muffins turned out so light, fluffy, and fresh! I loved the fresh orange flavor in the muffin and glaze. The only thing I changed was add in a cup of plain yogurt instead of the sour cream, and it turned out delicious. I also cut the glaze recipe in half since I only had enough orange ingredients for half, and there was still enough to dip all the muffins in. Thanks for the excellent orange muffin recipe.

These are EXCELLENT. I didn’t change the recipe and they turned out fantastic. The sour cream in these makes them moist and the orange is very present. I did have to sub a homemade powdered sugar bc I was in a pinch (1cup cane sugar +1tsp cornstarch). The flavor was the same as it would have been with the powdered sugar but my glaze ended up being granulated. Oh well, had to make it work! My toddler devoured one and my husband ate two right out of the oven.
I sent this recipe to my mom and my best friend immediately after making. I will be making these again and again. Wonderful!

So tasty! I added dried cranberries for an orange cranberry version and it’s taking all my will power not to eat them all! I also sifted my powdered sugar for the glaze, I added a little without sifting, which led to some sugar clumping. So I think it’s a great idea to sift 🙂

I’ve made these muffins 10x now! My husband requests them and every time they’re JUST as delectable. I used valencia oranges, and be sure to not over mix the batter or the muffins turn out dense.

I just tired this recipe for the first time today, all I can say is yummmm! They were great, I did leave them in the oven for about 5 more minutes than what was stated on the instructions. This recipe will go in my favorites recipe collections. Thank you!

I’ll definitely have to add cranberries next time I make this. I have a ton leftover from my cranberry sauce too!

Amen to the cranberries. Just made ’em and they are delicious – I know because I messed up one “accidently” and split it with DH. Oh, my. Wish I could add the pic I took for Pinterest – so pretty!
