- For an even stronger orange flavor, consider adding some orange zest to the batter.
- Ensure your butter is softened before mixing to create a smoother batter.
- Mix the poppy seeds with the orange juice and let them soak for at least 10 minutes before adding to the batter – this enhances the flavor and texture.
- Use a toothpick to test doneness. Insert it into the center of a muffin; if it comes out clean, your muffins are ready.
- Allow the muffins to cool completely before icing to prevent the cream cheese icing from melting.
- For a lighter icing, you can add a bit of milk to the cream cheese and powdered sugar mixture until you reach the desired consistency.
