Pioneer Woman Cranberry Orange Muffins Recipe
Cranberry orange muffins from the Pioneer Woman are seriously bursting with flavor!You'll find these muffins packed with tart cranberries and a sweet citrus that pairs wonderfully with a warm cup of coffee.I highly recommend using freshly squeezed juice if you can.Another important step I do is to toss the cranberries in a bit of flour before adding them to the batter. This prevents them from sinking to the bottom of the muffins.I appreciate how quickly these muffins come together!
