Cranberry/Orange Oat Muffins

So I've been in the fall mood it's been cooler here & I've been able to wear jeans & boots (my favorite). Fall always makes me think of Thanksgiving!! That may be my favorite Holiday
 (I LOVE to eat).

When I think of Thanksgiving I think of my 3 favorites to eat Turkey (of course), stuffing & cranberries (YUM).

I was in the mood to do some baking today & decided I wanted some cranberry muffins. What goes great with cranberry?? Orange! My mother in law makes these awesome blueberry oat muffins so it inspired me to put oats in my muffins. So here you have Cranberry/Orange Oat Muffins!!!


Here is how I made mine:

3/4- Cup Whole Wheat Flour & 3/4 Cup White Flour (you can use all white I was just trying to make them a little healthier)

1/2- Cup Sugar

1/2- Cup Old fashioned oats

3/4- Cup OJ

1 1/4- tsp Baking Powder

1/4- tsp Baking Soda

1/2- tsp Salt

1- Egg

1/2- Cup Vegetable Oil

1-tsp Orange Zest

1- Cup Cranberries

* Pre-heat oven to 400

*Mix Oats & OJ together set aside

* Mix: Flour, Baking Powder, Baking Soda, Salt, Sugar together

* Add oats to mixture then add Oil & Egg & Zest stir to combine then gently fold in Cranberries

*Place in muffin cups sprinkle with a little sugar & bake 15-18 minutes
