Servings: persons

1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup sugar
4 large eggs
2 teaspoons orange zest
2 teaspoons lemon zest
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons whole milk
3/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
2/3 cup sliced almonds, toasted
1/4 cup powdered sugar, for sifting

1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Place paper liners in a 12-cup muffin tin.
2
Blend together the flour, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl to blend.
3
Using an electric mixer beat the sugar, eggs, and zests in a large bowl until pale and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Beat in the vinegar and milk. Gradually beat in the oil.
4
Add the flour mixture and stir just until blended. Crush the almonds with your hands as you add them to the batter and stir until mixed.
5
Fill the muffin tin almost to the top of the paper liners. Bake until golden on top and a tester inserted into the center of the cake comes out with moist crumbs attached, about 20 to 25 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack and cool for 10 minutes.
6
Remove the muffins onto a platter and let cool for 5 more minutes.
7
Sift powdered sugar over the muffins and serve.
