Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup whole milk (or almond/oat milk)
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 tbsp fresh orange zest
- 1 cup dried cranberries (sweetened or unsweetened)
Instructions
- Preheat Your Oven: Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or spray with nonstick cooking spray.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
- Combine Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, beat together the eggs, milk, melted butter, and orange zest until smooth.
- Bring It Together: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry mixture and gently fold until just combined. Add the dried cranberries, folding carefully to avoid overmixing.
- Fill Muffin Tin: Spoon the batter into each muffin cup, filling them about two-thirds full.
- Bake Away!: Bake for about 18-20 minutes, or until golden brown on top and a toothpick comes out clean. Let cool in the pan for five minutes before transferring to wire racks.
