Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 1 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 0.5 cups unsalted butter, melted and cooled
- 0.75 cups pure maple syrup
- 0.5 cups plain Greek yogurt
- 0.25 cups milk
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1.5 cups fresh or frozen cranberries, roughly chopped
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar (for topping, optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a standard 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease the cups with cooking spray.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the melted butter, maple syrup, Greek yogurt, milk, eggs, and vanilla extract. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir gently with a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined. Be careful not to overmix—it's fine if a few lumps remain.
Gently fold in the chopped cranberries, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full. Sprinkle the tops with granulated sugar if desired for an added crunch.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18–22 minutes, or until the muffins are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Let the muffins cool in the pan for about 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy your Cranberry Maple Muffins!
