Time 40m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon salt
¾ cup brown sugar
¼ cup vegetable oil
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 Granny Smith apple, cored and chopped
⅓ (12 ounce) package fresh cranberries, diced - or more to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease 12 muffin cups or line with paper liners.
  • Whisk flour, baking soda, cinnamon, salt, and brown sugar in a bowl. Beat vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract in a separate bowl. Stir egg mixture into flour mixture to make a batter; gently fold apple and cranberries into batter. Pour into prepared muffin cups.

Tips:

  • Prepare the Ingredients: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all the ingredients measured and prepped. This will help you save time and ensure that you have everything you need.
  • Choose the Right Baking Dish: Use a 9x13 inch baking dish for this recipe. A smaller dish will make the crunch too thick, while a larger dish will make it too thin.
  • Don't Overcook the Oatmeal: Cook the oatmeal according to the package instructions, but be careful not to overcook it. Overcooked oatmeal will make the crunch too mushy.
  • Use Fresh Apples: Fresh apples will give the crunch the best flavor. If you only have access to apples that are not as fresh, you can peel and chop them before baking.
  • Toast the Nuts: Toasting the nuts will bring out their flavor and make them more crunchy. You can toast them in a skillet over medium heat for 5-7 minutes, or in a preheated oven at 350°F for 10-12 minutes.
  • Let the Crunch Cool Completely: Before serving the crunch, let it cool completely. This will allow the flavors to meld together and the crunch to set.

Conclusion:

This Cranberry Apple Nut Crunch is a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. It is a great way to use up leftover cranberries and apples, and it is also a great make-ahead breakfast or snack. With its sweet and tart flavor, this crunch is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
