Ingredients

Servings
  • 6 tablespoons butter softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 tablespoon grated orange zest
  • 2 cups + 1 Tablespoon all-purpose flour divided
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup fresh cranberries
  • 1-2 tablespoons raw or granulated sugar

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 F. Grease or line a 12-cup muffin tin. If you grease the pan, be sure to grease the entire muffin tin as tops may rise out of the cup. Set aside.
  2. In a large bowl, beat together butter and sugar until well-combined.
  3. Mix in eggs and vanilla until combined.
  4. Add milk and orange zest, and mix until incorporated.
  5. Stir in 2 cups flour, baking powder, and salt.
  6. In a small bowl, toss together cranberries and 1 tablespoon flour.
  7. Fold in cranberries.
  8. Divide batter among prepared muffin cups, and sprinkle tops with sugar.
  9. Bake 5 minutes.
  10. Without taking the muffins out, decrease oven temperature to 375F.
  11. Continue baking for an additional 17-25 minutes, or until muffins are golden brown.
  12. Let cool in pan for 5-10 minutes before removing.

Notes

  • Butter: I use salted butter in this recipe.
  • Milk: You can use any type of milk from skim to whole milk. You can also use nondairy milk if you prefer. 
  • Sugar topping: The sugar topping is delicious but is optional. 
  • Nutrition values are estimates.
