How to Make Apricot Orange Yogurt Muffins

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease well.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 cup granulated sugar, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg, 1/2 teaspoon baking soda, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs, 1 cup plain yogurt (Greek or regular), and 1/2 cup (1 stick) melted unsalted butter.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Gently fold in 1 cup chopped dried apricots and the zest of 1 orange.
  6. Fill each muffin cup about 2/3 full.
  7. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Let the muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
