ingredients

4 eggs
1 cup vegetable oil
2 cups milk
3 cups Craisins sweetened dried cranberries
4 cups all purpose flour
4 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
2 cups sugar

directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a muffin tin.

In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, oil, and milk until frothy.

In another bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder, and sugar. While stirring the egg mixture, slowly add the flour mixture and mix until just combined. Stir in the cranberries. Stir but do not overmix.

Fill the muffin tins 3/4ths full with the batter. Place in the oven and bake at 350 degrees F for 30 minutes or until the tops are light brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out slightly moist.

Remove the muffins from the oven and let cool in the pan for 10 minutes then remove to a wire rack to cool completely. Store the cooled muffins in an airtight container.

  1. EthelMertz REVIEW:

    This is a great recipe. I used 1/2 stick of butter and 1/2 c oil. 1tsp vanilla and added 2tsp.of True Orange brand crystallized Orange Ginger. Yummy!

  2. Guest Foodie REVIEW:

    I loved this recipe...I used 1/2 cup oil, and 1/2 cup softened butter... Texture was fabulous....also...made 12 muffins and the rest in a small,loaf pan. Loaf took a little longer to bake but was nice to serve in slices.

  3. Febu2016 REVIEW:

    Easy to make, I added 1 tsp of Almond Extract and it had a similar flavor to that of fortune cookies!! Will definitely make again.

  4. Baker1268 REVIEW:

    Too much oil!!! The texture was all wrong and when I took it out of the oven, it didn't look done even though it was. Note this is also a double recipe (4 cups flour) you could easily half it.

  5. January 26, 2013 REVIEW:

    Easy recipe and yummy. I did add one tsp each of orange and almond extracts. Might have been a little bland without that.

  6. Ammmyyy REVIEW:

    Yuummm! I only made enough for 6 muffins (because I'm forever getting recipies that don't really work out the way they say they should) but I will definitely be making bigger batches of this one in the future! I also added a splash of vanilla, the zest of half a small orange and the juice from it (just under 1/4cup). All 6 were gone pretty damn quick :)

  7. Misty REVIEW:

    Loved that I could half this! I wanted a recipe that I could for craisins. I added the grated peal of an orange. Wonderful. Baked up perfectly and made exactly the amount quoted. Will make again. Next time I will probably use less craisins.

  8. Rich0323 REVIEW:

    This was great! It's makes a lot so you might want to half the recipe. I added a splash of vanilla for a little more flavor.

  9. ToDiFor REVIEW:

    This was a great recipe to start from. I am gluten intolerant, Celiac, and so I had to tweek the recipe. I started with 1/2 of the recipe, so i could start with 12 servings instead of 24. Then I decreased the sugar to 3/4 cup, 1/4c brown sugar and 1/2c gran white sugar. Instead of 2c all-purpose flour, I used 1-1/2c Bette Hageman's 4 Flour Bean Flour, and 1/2 cup hazelnut flour. I almost put in some orange extract or vanilla but I thought that can wait till next time, if they go over well. They did so I will have to try different flavors later ^_^
