2 One fourth cup Allpurpose flour
One half cup Granulated sugar
2 One half teaspoon Baking powder
One half teaspoon Baking soda
One fourth teaspoon Salt
1 cup Sliced almonds
One half cup Milk
One half cup Orange juice
One fourth cup Butter; melted
Powdered sugar

1) In a large bowl, mix flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, soda, and
salt until blended. Stir in almonds. Push mixture up sides of bowl to form
a well in center.

peel; beat to blend. Pour liquid mixture into well of flour mixture, mixing
lightly to blend. Batter should be lumpy.

3) Spoon mixture equally into 4 greased 6oz custard cups (set cups at
least 2" apart on a shallow baking pan) or 6 greased muffin cups 2 One half to
23/4" in diameter (fill alternate muffin cups); cups will be heaping full.
Sprinkle each muffin lightly with powdered sugar.

400 degree oven, until a slender wooden pick inserted in center comes out
clean, 35 to 40 minutes for custard cup size muffins, 25 to 30 minutes for
smaller ones. Let cool about 5 minutes. Remove muffins from cups or pans
and serve hot or warm.
