CRANBERRY BRAN MUFFINS



Cranberry Bran Muffins image

These are so easy and quick, you can bake them on a whim -- whenever you have a craving but not a lot of time. Orange zest and buttermilk give this recipe extra-special tang.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Breakfast & Brunch Recipes

Time 50m

Yield Makes 1 dozen

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups wheat bran
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 teaspoon fine salt
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 1/2 cups packed dark-brown sugar
1 1/4 cups plus 2 tablespoons buttermilk
11 tablespoons (1 3/8 sticks) unsalted butter, melted and cooled
2 large eggs
1 tablespoon finely grated orange zest
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups fresh or frozen cranberries

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a 12-cup standard muffin tin with paper liners; set aside. Place flour, bran, baking powder, salt, and baking soda in a large bowl. Stir in sugar, and set aside.
  • Whisk together buttermilk, butter, eggs, zest, and vanilla in a bowl. Add flour mixture; stir until just combined. Stir in cranberries.
  • Divide batter among lined muffin cups. Bake until cooked through and golden brown, about 30 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool slightly. Turn out; serve warm or at room temperature.

Tips:

  • Use fresh or frozen cranberries for the best flavor. If using frozen cranberries, thaw them before using.
  • If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of milk. Let it sit for 5 minutes before using.
  • Gently fold the cranberries and pineapple into the batter. Overmixing will make the muffins tough.
  • Fill the muffin cups only 2/3 full. The muffins will rise as they bake.
  • Bake the muffins at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Let the muffins cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
