Cranberry Orange Muffins
Cranberry Orange Muffins combine almond, tapioca, and coconut flours with fresh cranberries and orange zest for a flavorful, moist muffin. The batter blends maple syrup, coconut oil, eggs, and orange juice for moisture and sweetness. These muffins bake to a golden top and can be made flatter or taller depending on batter filling level in the pan.
Ingredients
Dry Ingredients
- 2 cups almond flour
- ⅔ cup tapioca flour
- ¼ cup coconut flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 ½ cups cranberries fresh
Wet Ingredients
- 2 egg room temperature
- ⅓ cup orange juice freshly squeezed
- 1 tablespoon orange zest
- ⅔ cup maple syrup
- ¼ cup coconut oil melted
- 1 teaspoons vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin pan with baking cups.
- Add all of the dry ingredients (except the cranberries) to a mixing bowl and whisk together.
- Add all of the wet ingredients to a separate mixing bowl and whisk together. Then, add the wet ingredients into the dry and whisk for about 30 seconds, until you have a batter.
- Fold the cranberries into the batter. You can always reserve a few cranberries to add to the top of the muffins before baking.
- Evenly divide the batter between 12 baking cups. They should be about 85 to 90% full. *Note: these will be fairly flat muffins. If you'd like taller, more mounded muffins, fill 10 baking cups.
- Bake the muffins for 28 to 33 minutes, or until they're golden on the top and a toothpick comes out clean.
Notes
- Refer to recommended flour brands for best texture and rise when baking with the almond, tapioca, and coconut flour blend.
