TWD: Citrus-Craisin Sunshine Muffins

I made these muffins for breakfast this morning and they were a hit! They are very fluffy with flat tops and very citrus-y. Definitely a yummy way to start the day!
I made a few changes to the recipe to fit what I had on hand. The recipe calls for currants and orange zest but I substituted craisins and lemon zest. Since there is orange juice in the batter there was still a nice orange flavor. I loved the combination of orange, lemon, and craisins. SO GOOD!
Thanks to Lauryn of Bella Baker for hosting this week. The recipe can be found at her blog.
