I like to pile these muffins on a plate when friends drop in for coffee. Even my grandkids enjoy the nice flavor combination.
Ingredients:
1/2 cup whole-berry cranberry sauce
1/2 teaspoon grated orange peel
1-1/2 cups king arthur unbleached 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 egg
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 peel; 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.
4. Bake at 375° for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in muffin comes out clean. Cool for 5 minutes before removing from pan to a wire rack. Combine confectioners' sugar and orange juice; drizzle over warm muffins. Yield: about 1 dozen.
