Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Shredded unsweetened coconut
- 1 cup Fresh or frozen cranberries
- 1 large Egg
- 0.75 cup Milk
- 0.33 cup Vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon Orange zest
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease lightly with cooking spray.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and shredded coconut until evenly combined.
In a medium bowl, whisk the egg, milk, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and orange zest together until fully blended.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently with a spatula until just combined. Avoid overmixing to ensure tender muffins.
Fold in the cranberries, distributing them evenly throughout the batter.
Scoop the batter evenly into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 3/4 full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature, and enjoy your Coconut Cranberry Muffins!
