When life gives you oranges, you make...all the orange things! because fruit tastes best when it is local and in season. These orange choc chip food processor muffins are delicious- and you only end up with one mixing thing to clean- the food processor!

Kids love muffins!

I find not matter what fruit or veggies I use, I can always get the kids to eat it in muffin form. Now that my kids are older, I'm making full size muffins, but I used to make a lot of mini muffins, just for the lunchboxes.

Muffins don't have to be sugar packed to be yummy, these ones do contain sugar, but I've tried to lower it a lot. When baking with orange it's tricky because no matter how sweet the oranges are when you have them raw, they tend to become a bit more bitter in baking, so the sugar helps to compensate for that.

Oranges are so versatile

Whether you're baking, making juice or using them in savoury meals, oranges are fantastic, because they can be used in so many ways!

Here are some other orange recipes to get you using delicious oranges while they are in season:

Freezer?

Of course! Muffins freeze brilliantly and these orange choc chip food processor muffins are perfect for freezing! They defrost great in the lunchbox or can be defrosted overnight in the fridge.

What if I don't have a food processor?

If you have a high powered blender it will work, just make sure to stop it regularly and scrape the sides!
