Cranberries are for more than just sauce. Citrus zest rounds out their tartness in these moist muffins.
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tbsp all-purpose flour
- 2 tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp salt
- 1 navel orange, zested
- ½ cup (1 stick) butter, melted
- 2 large eggs

- ½ (12 oz) pkg frozen or fresh cranberries
Steps
- Preheat oven to 400°F. Line 16 cups of 2 muffin pans with paper liners.
