Servings: persons

2 cups all purpose flour
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
2 sugar cubes
8 dashes Angostura Bitters
3 eggs, large
1 1/3 cups olive oil
1 1/4 cups milk
1 tablespoon grated orange zest
1/4 cup orange juice
1/4 cup bourbon
Powdered sugar for dusting, optional

1
Pre-heat oven to 375 degrees. With a mortar and pestle, muddle 8 dashes of bitters with 2 sugar cubes. In a large bowl, add sugar cubes, flour, sugar, baking soda, salt, and baking powder. Mix well and set aside.
2
In a medium bowl, add olive oil, milk, bourbon, orange juice, orange zest, and eggs. Whisk well to make sure all ingredients are thoroughly mixed together. Line two 12-muffins tins with paper liners or grease and flour pans. (Non-stick cooking spray with flour works well too)
3
Gradually add wet ingredients to dry, mixing batter with a wooden spoon. Once all wet and dry ingredients are well-mixed, spoon batter into each muffin well to 2/3 full.
4
Bake for 30-35 minutes. Start checking at 30 minutes. The tops may not crack like a cake will, but do check for the tops turning golden to light golden brown. Also check for doneness by inserting a toothpick or cake tester into centers of each. It will come out clean if done.
5
Allow muffins to cool in pans for 20-25 minutes before turning out. Sprinkle with powdered sugar, if desired.
