I made there yesterday. They are so good. Of course, I didnt have orange extract........ so I used the middle eastern orange blossom water. worked fine.
for frosting I mixed 4 oz soft cream cheese with 1/2 stick butter added 1/3 cup splenda and 1 tsp vanilla extract. Very good on these muffins.
One of these days I will make a recipe exactly as writen.
I wanted to make a note of a new variation on these I just made this weekend and they are SUPER! I turned them into strawberry muffins since I had no oranges around.
Instead of sour cream I put the same amount of lc strawberry yogurt and instead of orange extract I put 1 TBSP strawberry syrup. (strawberry extract would work good too I suppose!)
I topped them with a 'frosting' of cream cheese blended with strawberry torani syrup. They were really wonderful!

Please don't think of me as a total moron but....where can I go to convert these measurements from oz, grams etc... to cups, tsp, Tbsp's? I do not have a scale to measure 140 grams / 5 oz's of butter.... Help...

Demi, is there anything you can't make?
I was extremely impressed by both the appearance and taste of these cakes. Before reading your posts, I had never used almond flour. "I have seen the light". It is clearly such a versatile ingredient and has become a staple in my kitchen. Thanks so much

Tried these out last weekend, but used lemon peel & almond extract. Wow, they were great. Even the kids were stealing them. I could picture some blueberries in this version for an added treat.
