1Preheat oven to 400°F. Spray a standard muffin pan with cooking spray.
2Place almonds, 2 Tbsp. all-purpose flour, 2 Tbsp. brown sugar, 1 tsp. orange zest and 1/4 tsp. salt in a food processor. Process until fine, place in a small bowl and stir in 2 tsp. oil; set aside.

3In a large bowl, whisk together 3/4 cup all-purpose flour, whole-wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda and the remaining 1/4 tsp. salt. Use your hand to form a hole in the center of the mixture.
