Delightful muffins combining the tangy flavor of cranberries with fresh orange, perfect for breakfast or as a snack.

  • Total Time: 32 minutes
  • Yield: 12 muffins

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup fresh or frozen cranberries, roughly chopped
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • ½ cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1 large egg
  • ¼ cup vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup orange juice (freshly squeezed if possible)
  • Zest of 1 orange
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease it.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Whisk until well blended.
  3. In another bowl, beat the egg. Then add the vegetable oil, vanilla extract, orange juice, and orange zest. Whisk until combined.
  4. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined; a few lumps are fine.
  5. Fold in the chopped cranberries evenly.
  6. Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
  7. Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
  8. Let the muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Notes

Store muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for 2-3 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
