Tip

You can replace mandarins with 1 whole juicy orange but this may result in a more bitter flavour depending on thickness of pith.

    I made this with tangelos (5x small plus juice of 6th). Just removed seeds and centre pith as recipe states. Also used nuttelex as we are dairy free. Yum! tmrc_emoticons.)

    Great taste - kids all loved them. My maderins were getting past it and the batter looked quite dry so I added a little orange juice and it worked well.

    Very light & moist. I only put in skin from 2 of the mandarins and used margarine as I didn't have any butter left. Just a nice amount of mandarin flavour

    Submitted by Jodes81 on 22. June 2015 - 16:29.

    These were really easy and had lovely consistency but a really bitter after taste. I think I would use less or none of the skin next time - not a hit wi the kids this time round.

    I only used the skin of one mandarin and it gave the muffins a lovely, light, fragrant taste.

    Thanks! These are lovely, although I misread the instructions and didn't add any of the mandarin skins so the flavour was a bit light on!

    These were very tart, so I topped them with creamcheese buttercream and a hit with adults. No so much with kids. Great way to use up mandarins. Thanks

    Submitted by kdemery on 22. August 2014 - 21:28.

    One question, are you meant to peel the mandarins or leave  the skin on like in the "whole orange" cake?  I peeled mine and they were beautfiul and light!  Great way to use up a few mandy's left in the fruit bowl too!
