I’ve gotta say…this feels amazing to have a stellar Orange Cranberry muffin recipe!
It’s alway been one of my favorite muffins. Probably tied with a chocolate chip muffin {not to be confused with a chocolate chocolate chip muffin which I do not like}.
It’s been pretty horrible to have been baking 5 years professionally and not have a recipe for my favorite muffin. Kinda embarrassing honestly.
There’s a coffee shop on the beach by my place in Florida that has the number ONE orange cranberry muffin on planet earth…dare I say even better than mine…{insert sad face here}.
You may be wondering if an O.C. muffin is one of my favorites then why did it take me so many years to create a recipe? Well I tried probably a few months into my baking journey many years ago and failed. Really was humbling. And I just moved on. It wasn’t terrible or anything, but certainly wasn’t special and didn’t have that burst of cranberry. Nor orange for that matter honestly. So nope not gonna happen.
I decided to try again today and I have found O.C. muffin VICTORY! I’m so happy.
Let’s discuss muffin victory requirements.
First and above ALL the muffin must be moist with a tender crumb. And have a very distinct “whatever it is meant to be” wow factor. So for an Orange Cranberry muffin, I want a BURST of real cranberries throughout and BRIGHT orange flavor.
Next, I want to feel happy eating the muffin. Yes, I feel that’s important. It’s a muffin after all. It’s a comfort baked good. Happiness is required.
I’m so excited to share these and get feedback.
I’ll be taking these to a missionary event at a church in Ohio that I’m attending soon and I can’t wait to serve them!
Until next time…
Follow God and Bake from your Heart,
Kendra
