Orange and cranberry are just made for each other and these are great! The recipe makes about 18 - you may get more or less depending on how full you fill the muffin cups. Ingredients:
1 1/4 cups orange juice |
1/4 cup grand marnier |
3/4 cup canola oil |
2 cups chopped fresh cranberries |
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour |
1 cup whole wheat flour |
1 1/2 cups sugar |
2 tablespoons baking powder |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1 1/2 tablespoons chopped orange zest |
4 egg whites |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 400°.
2. Combine the orange juice, Grand Marnier, and the oil and set aside.
3. In a large bowl, combine the flours, sugar, baking powder, salt and orange zest.
4. In another large bowl, beat the egg whites until frothy.
5. Combine the juice mixture with the beaten egg whites.
6. Add the egg mixture and the cranberries to the flour mixture, stirring just until moist.
7. Fill muffin pans lined with paper liners, about 3/4 full.
