Cranberry Orange Marmalade Muffins Recipes

CRANBERRY ORANGE MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F (218°C). Spray a 12-count muffin pan with nonstick spray or line with cupcake liners. Set aside.
• In a medium bowl using a handheld or stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat the butter on high speed until smooth and creamy, about 1 minute. Add the granulated and brown sugars and beat on high until creamed, about 2 full minutes. Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl as needed. Add the eggs, yogurt, and vanilla extract. Beat on medium speed for 1 minute, then turn up to high speed until the mixture is combined and uniform in texture. Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl as needed. Then, beat in the orange zest until combined.
• In a large bowl, toss together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and slowly mix with a whisk. Add the orange juice and milk, gently whisking until combined and little lumps remain. Fold in the cranberries with a wooden spoon or rubber spatula.
• Spoon batter into prepared muffin pan, filling them all the way to the top. Top the batter with an additional cranberry or two, for looks if desired. (I like the pop of color on top of the muffins in doing this.) Bake for 5 minutes at 425°F (218°C), then keeping the muffins in the oven, lower the oven temperature to 350°F (177°C) and bake for 18-20 more minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. The total times these muffins take in the oven is about 23-25 minutes.
• While the muffins are cooling for a few minutes, make the glaze by whisking the glaze ingredients together. Drizzle over warm muffins. Allow to briefly cool before serving.

• In a standing mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, or with an electric hand-held mixer in a large bowl, cream the butter, orange zest, and 2/3 cup sugar until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Scrape down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Remove the bowl from the mixer.
• Fold the flour in 3 parts into the butter mixture, alternating with the milk in 2 parts, until just combined. Fold in the cranberries. Do not over mix.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly coat the top and inside cups of a 12-cup muffin pan with nonstick cooking spray.
• Put 1/4 cup almonds in the bowl of a food processor. Process until very fine and the nuts are the texture of cornmeal. Add the cake mix, yogurt, eggs, oil, 1/4 cup water and the remaining 3/4 cup whole almonds. Pulse until no bits of dry cake mix remain and the nuts are coarsely chopped Add 1/4 teaspoon of zest and the orange juice to the batter with the cranberries. Pulse two or three times to just combine the fruit.
• Divide the batter between muffin cups and bake until the tops are lightly browned and spring back to the touch, 18 to 20 minutes.
• Cool 10 minutes in the pan then transfer to a cooling rack to cool completely. In a small bowl whisk the powdered sugar, hot water and remaining 1/2 teaspoon zest until glossy and smooth. Adjust the consistency of the glaze with the remaining water, a few drops at a time until just loose enough to drizzle. Spoon over the cooled muffins. Let stand a few minutes for the glaze to harden.
