Orange-Poppy Seed Tea Cakes

MAKES ABOUT 24 MUFFINS

Ingredients:
• 2 eggs plus 1 egg white
• 2½ cups sugar
• 1/8 cup vegetable oil
• 1 cup applesauce
• 1½ teaspoons vanilla
• 1½ teaspoons almond extract
• 3 cups all-purpose flour mixed with 1½ teaspoons salt and
• 1½ teaspoons baking powder
• 1½ cups milk
• 1½ teaspoons poppy seeds
• ¼ teaspoon grated orange zest

Ingredients For Glaze:
• ¼ cup orange juice
• ¾ cup powdered sugar
• ½ teaspoon vanilla
• ½ teaspoon almond extract

Preparation:
Beat the eggs in a large bowl; add the sugar, oil, applesauce, and extracts. Mix well. Add half of the flour mixture and half of the milk. Mix. Add the remaining ingredients. Blend for about 2 minutes until batter is smooth. Spoon the batter into muffin tins lined with paper muffin cups. Bake for 25 minutes at 350°. Cool.

After muffins are cooled, prepare glaze. In a saucepan, stir all ingredients continually over medium heat at a slow boil until thickened. Do not overcook. Immediately drizzle over muffins. Allow glaze to cool and harden.
