Cranberry Orange Muffins Recipe
Ingredients:
2 cup flour 3/4 cup sugar 1 1/2 tsp baking powder 1/2 tsp baking soda 3/4 cup orange juice 1 tbsp (or more!) grated orange zest 1 equivalent of one egg (1/4 c fat-fr, ee egg substitute) 2 tbsp nonfat yogurt, or 2 tbsp applesauce 6 oz fresh cranberries (chopped), or 1 c, up dried cranberri 1/2 cup nuts (optional!)
Instructions:
Mix dry ingredients (1st group) in med-large bowl. Mix wet ingredients (2nd group) separately. Combine both groups, then add in fruit, and nuts if desired. Bake in LIGHTLY greased/Pammed muffin pan at 375 degrees for 20 minutes, or till firm to touch and light brown on top. Makes 12 muffins.
This basic recipe is very flexible. A few days ago I took out 1/4 cup flour and added 1/2 cup wheat bran - worked fine. I've also used lemon juice, lemon zest, and raisins instead of the cranberries. The nuts can be varied or just plain omitted (my husband likes the nuts - but to adhere to the rules of this list, you'd probably want to forgo them). Any kind of fruit can work - raisins, chopped dates, currants, dried cherries, dried apricots, etc. The amount of sugar depends on the fruit used and your individual taste - cranberries are on the tart side. Experiment - this recipe seems to be fairly forgiving!
I'll try to remember to bring in some other muffin recipes - like banana wheat-bran, and oat-bran raisin.
