Orange Poppy Seed Muffins with Orange Glaze

• Transfer to a cooling rack. Brush the muffin tops with the orange glaze while still hot.
• Orange syrup: combine the 2 tablespoons orange juice with the 2 tablespoons sugar and heat over medium heat. Stir until sugar is dissolved then bring to a boil and simmer for 1 minute without stirring. Use while still hot.
• For cup measures: spoon the flour into the cup, heaping it up over the top, then slide a knife across the top to level off the extra. Be careful not to shake or tap the cup to settle down the flour or you will have more than you need. I use a 240ml, American cup.

Points to Note:

• Please note that oven temperatures are given as a guideline only. You may need to add or reduce the suggested temperatures depending on your oven. I baked the muffins at 360°F (100°C) for 28 minutes.
