Ingredients
Muffin Batter:
- 4 cups all-purpose flour
- Generous ½ cup granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons baking powder
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- ¼ cup shortening
- 1½ to 2 cups sweet orange marmalade (use 2 cups if you like the bitter marmalade taste, less if you don't)

Instructions

- For the muffin batter: Sift together the flour, granulated sugar and baking powder. Place the flour mixture in a mixing bowl. Use a pastry cutter to mix in the butter and shortening.
- Mix the marmalade, orange juice and vanilla in a small bowl. Pour the marmalade mixture into the flour mixture. Pour the eggs into the bowl. Mix all ingredients together gently, using fewer than 10 large strokes.
- For the topping: Mix the granulated sugar, brown sugar, butter, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt in a small bowl.
- Fill muffin pans with batter. Sprinkle 1 heaping teaspoon of topping ingredients over each muffin. Sprinkle ½ teaspoon wheat germ over the top for extra crunch if desired.
- Bake until done, 20 to 22 minutes. Remove the muffins from the pan and cool on a wire rack. Eat warm or at room temperature.
