Ingredients
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- 2 tsp pumpkin spice mix
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp kosher salt
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp ground ginger
- 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
- 1 1/2 cups sugar
- 2 cups dried cranberries
- zest of 2 medium oranges about 3 tbsp, juice reserved
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1/4 cup orange juice
- 1 cup 2 sticks unsalted butter, melted
- 2 large eggs lightly beaten
- 1/2 cup streusel topping optional
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375° and lightly spray a muffin pan with non-stick baking spray. Line each muffin tin with liners and set aside.
- In a large bowl combine the flour, baking powder, spices, salt, baking soda, sugar with a whisk. Toss the cranberries in to coat with the flour. Add the orange zest and mix to combine.
- In another bowl, combine the milk, orange juice, melted butter, and eggs. Mix well and pour into the dry ingredients.
- Fold the batter gently, just until the flour is absorbed. Don't overmix! Scoop into the lined muffin pan and sprinkle about a tbsp of streusel over the top of each, if desired (add more if you'd like).
- Bake for 18-20 mins or until the tops spring back when lightly pressed. Remove from the oven and allow to cool before enjoying.
