Ingredients
- 5 tablespoons butter melted, salted
- ½ cup sugar
- orange zest from 1
- ¾ cup sour cream 6 ounces
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 ¼ cups Cranberry very large cranberries halved, fresh or frozen
- walnut or pecan; optional; chopped; 1/2 cup
- coarse sugar for topping
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Line a muffin tin with 9 paper liners. Set aside. In a large bowl, whisk together the melted butter, sugar, orange zest, sour cream, egg, and vanilla extract. Sprinkle the baking powder, baking soda, and salt over top. Whisk to combine. Add the flour and gently stir with a wooden spoon or spatula, just until combined and no dry streaks of flour remain. The batter will be nice and thick!
- Fold in the cranberries and nuts (is using).
- Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups. Sprinkle the top of each muffin with coarse sugar. Bake for about 25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into each muffin comes out clean and the tops are golden.
- Cool muffins in the pan for about 5 minutes, and then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- This recipe yields 9 standard-size muffins. You can bake the batter in jumbo muffin tins for giant bakery-size treats. You'll need to increase the total baking time to 30-35 minutes for the jumbo muffins. Similarly, you can bake the batter in mini muffin tins. The mini muffins will bake much faster, so they will only need a total of about 12-15 minutes in a 350°F oven.
