LOVED these muffins - and their yummy streusel topping. :) Moist and so wonderfully flavoursome. It must be the combination of the buttermilk, sour cream, vanilla and, of course, the orange zest. We thoroughly enjoyed every bite and as they're so easy to make I'll certainly be making these again. Thank you so much for posting this recipe, Brooke. Made for Newest Zaar Tag.

<br>I have been a member of Zaar for awhile now and found that I love it! I have tried so many recipes and many new foods that I never would have without Zaar.
<br>
<br>I work full-time at a university in Wisconsin, it allows me to travel a bit and see the rest of the state, I work with a lot a great people and am really happy in my job.
<br>
<br>When I'm not working, I spend time with my hubby and 12 year old son. My son has picked up my love for cooking, a few of the things he makes are - naan bread, cookies, and quick breads, I'm so proud of him! In our family we also have two cocker spaniels, our puppy Laci (above) and Peanut, that we adore like they were our children.
<br>
<br>We live in an old farm house that we are remodeling (did the library and the kitchen so far....) on the outskirts of town. Close enough where my hubby can bike to work in the summer, but far enough away from campus that we don't have to lock down our lawn ornaments in fear of college pranks!
