Cranberries are our state fruit here in Massachusetts, and I love stocking up on them when they’re on sale in the fall. They’re a celebrated item on our Thanksgiving table in the form of cranberry sauce, and they also make their way into our snacks during the fall.

Cranberries are the perfect ingredient for muffins!

The tart flavor of cranberries works so well in breads and muffins. These gluten free cranberry muffins have a delicious contrast in flavors. The sweetness of orange juice and the zing of the cranberries make a great combination.

I like to chop the cranberries for better distribution in my muffins. Biting into a full cranberry can be a bit much, but they’re delicious in smaller doses.

If you want an even stronger orange flavor, you can add a bit of fresh orange zest to the batter along with the cranberries. Chopped walnuts make a nice hearty addition, too.

These cranberry orange muffins are wonderful for everyday snacking, but they also make a great addition to a bread basket at Thanksgiving. Since they’re not too sweet, they fit right in with a savory holiday feast.

    These tasted great but it had a portion that seemed undercooked. What if seems like it is undercooked in the middle? I tried putting them back in the oven for 10 minutes and the outside was brown but still had that portion that seemed a tad gooey. What went wrong?
