Navel Orange Olive Oil Jam Muffins Recipe at The Little Shop of Olive Oils

These Valencia Orange Olive Oil Jam Muffins are soft, bright, and just the kind of little treat that feels perfect for a slow morning or an easy afternoon break. They’re lightly golden on the outside, tender on the inside, and finished with a sweet spoonful of jam that makes each one feel a little extra special.

What really makes these muffins stand out is our Valencia Orange Olive Oil. It adds a fresh, citrusy flavor that blends beautifully into the batter, giving the muffins a light, sunny taste without being overpowering. It also keeps them incredibly moist, with that soft, delicate crumb that olive oil baking does so well.

The hint of orange pairs perfectly with your favorite fruit jam—whether you go with raspberry, strawberry, or even apricot. Personally we love having choices so our Vintner's Jam Trio is our go to. It’s a simple recipe, but one that feels thoughtful, flavorful, and just a little more elevated.

They’re perfect for brunch, gifting, or just having on hand when you want something homemade that feels easy and comforting.
