INSTRUCTIONS
Heat oven to 400 degrees. Grease 12 regular muffin cups or more mini-muffin tins (no exact number is given since they come in different sizes). Combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, sugar, and grated orange peel on a piece of wax paper. Beat eggs in a bowl and beat in orange juice. Add dry ingredients and stir gently with a spoon until barely blended. There will still be large lumps of flour. Add pecans and fold a few times to disperse. Lumps of flour will remain. Fill muffin tins 2/3 full and bake until the muffins are golden brown, about 20 minutes.
