"There are many orange groves in this area, so I attempted to create a muffin recipe using the fruit. I think it turned out very well, and everyone who's tried it agrees with me."

Directions
- In a mixing bowl, cream shortening and sugar. Beat in egg yolks. Combine the orange juice, peel and extracts. Combine the flour, baking powder and salt; add to creamed mixture alternately with juice mixture. In a mixing bowl, beat egg whites until stiff peaks form; fold in to creamed mixture. Fill paper-lined muffin cups three-fourths full. Bake at 375 degrees F for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool for 5 minutes before removing from pan to a wire rack.
