Description
Simple recipe for moist muffins featuring cranberry and orange flavors.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 large egg
- 3/4 cup milk
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon orange zest
- 1/4 cup orange juice
- 1 cup fresh or frozen cranberries
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease it.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- In a separate medium bowl, whisk the egg, milk, vegetable oil, orange zest, and orange juice until combined.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Mix just until moistened. Do not overmix.
- Gently fold in the cranberries.
- Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
- Bake for 18 to 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the muffins cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- If using frozen cranberries, do not thaw them before adding them to the batter.
- For extra flavor, you can brush the tops with melted butter immediately after removing them from the oven.
