Healthy Fresh Cranberry Orange Coconut Muffins image

I'm a sucker for all things coconut and now that we have healthier options for incorporating it I like to modify existing recipes. This is a healthier version of a classic Cranberry Orange muffin. I've eaten 2 just now and had to make myself stop. Original version of this I was inspired from is recipe #75662 on this site.

Time 35m

Yield 16 muffins, 16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 cup fresh cranberries, chopped
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup unsweetened flaked coconut
1 1/2 cups white whole wheat flour
1/4 cup coconut flour
1/4 cup oat bran
3 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/3 cup coconut butter, melted
3/4 cup orange juice
2 large eggs
1/2 cup pepitas (raw hulled pumpkin seeds)
turbinado sugar, for sprinkling on top before baking

Steps:

  • NOTE: If not using coconut flour then you can probably use ½ cup of OJ. Coconut flour requires more liquid.
  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Line muffin tins with paper cups. - I love the new parchment ones they have in grocery stores now.
  • In a bowl, stir together cranberries & regular sugar.
  • In a large bowl sift together flours, oat bran, coconut flakes, baking powder, salt and brown sugar.
  • Whisk eggs, OJ, and melted butter and then add to dry ingredients all at once and stir until moistened.
  • Fold in sugared cranberries.
  • Scoop into prepared muffins liners evenly .
  • Sprinkle desired amount of Turbinado sugar on top of each.
  • Bake at 400F for 20 minutes or until lightly brown and toothpick comes out cleanly.

These muffins were a bit too expensive for my taste. I think I'll find a cheaper recipe next time.

These muffins were a bit too bland for my taste. I think I'll add some spices to the batter next time I make them.

These muffins were a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll reduce the amount of sugar next time I make them.

I added a teaspoon of cinnamon to the batter and it gave the muffins a warm and cozy flavor. I also topped the muffins with a streusel topping made with oats, flour, brown sugar, and butter.

I made these muffins with gluten-free flour and they turned out great! They were just as moist and fluffy as the regular muffins.

These muffins are a great way to use up leftover cranberries. I always have a bag of cranberries in my freezer, so I can make these muffins anytime I have a craving for something sweet.

I'm not usually a fan of coconut, but I really enjoyed these muffins. The coconut flavor was subtle and complemented the cranberries and oranges perfectly.

These muffins were a hit with my family! The cranberry-orange-coconut combination was perfectly balanced, and the muffins were moist and fluffy. I'll definitely be making these again.
