Cran-Apple Muffins

TOTAL TIME: Prep: 20 min. Bake: 20 min. YIELD: 1 dozen.
I like to pile a fresh batch of these muffins on a plate when friends drop in for coffee. Even my grandkids enjoy the cranberry and apple flavor combination. —Millie Westland, Hayward, Minnesota

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup whole-berry cranberry sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon grated orange zest
  • 1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 large egg, room temperature
  • 1/3 cup 2% milk
  • 1/3 cup canola oil
  • 1 cup shredded peeled tart apple
  • 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
  • 1 tablespoon orange juice

Directions

  • 1. In a small bowl, combine cranberry sauce and orange zest; set aside.
  • 2. In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, cinnamon, baking soda, baking powder and salt. Beat the egg, milk and oil; stir into dry ingredients just until moistened. Fold in apple.
  • 3. Fill greased or paper-lined muffin cups half full. Make a well in the center of each muffin; fill with about 2 teaspoons of reserved cranberry mixture.
