Notes
- Cranberry Substitute: You could use dried cranberries, if you don't have fresh, or try substituting fresh or frozen raspberries or blueberries, for a fun flavor twist.
- Mini Muffins: For mini muffins, bake at 350°F (177°C) for about 11-13 minutes or until baked through. Use a toothpick to test for doneness.
- Jumbo Cranberry Orange Muffins: for larger, bakery style muffins, divide batter between 10 muffin cups, instead of 12.
- Freezing Instructions: Allow muffins to cool completely, then place in an airtight container of freezer bag for up to 3 months. Thaw at room temperature, or rewarm in the microwave for a few seconds.
