CRANBERRY-ZUCCHINI MUFFINS



Cranberry-Zucchini Muffins image

This recipe is from Martha Stewart's Baking Handbook. I was looking for a lighter muffin recipe to try and stumbled across this one online. The zucchini keeps the muffins extremely moist without having to add a whole lot of oil. The cranberries pop in the oven and add a sour, gooeyness that I just love. If fresh cranberries aren't in season, the frozen ones work just fine.

Provided by Diet It Up

Categories     < 60 Mins

Time 35m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 3/4 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 eggs
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup zucchini, finely shredded
1/2 cup cranberries, whole

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
  • The dry team goes in one bowl (flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon and salt).
  • The wet team goes in a separate bowl (eggs, sugar, vegetable oil, vanilla and zucchini).
  • Combine the wet team and dry team, add the cranberries and stir until just mixed.
  • Spoon the batter evenly into 12 muffin cups.
  • Bake for 25-30 minutes.

Tips:

  • To ensure the zucchini wedges are crispy, make sure to cut them into even-sized wedges and coat them evenly in the seasoned breadcrumb mixture.
  • For a tangy twist, add a teaspoon of lemon zest to the breadcrumb mixture.
  • To make the cranberry sauce, use fresh cranberries for the best flavor. If fresh cranberries are unavailable, you can use frozen cranberries, but be sure to thaw them before using.
  • If you prefer a sweeter sauce, add an extra tablespoon of honey to the cranberry sauce.
  • To save time, you can use store-bought cranberry sauce.

Conclusion:

These Cranberry Zucchini Wedges are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or side dish that is perfect for any occasion. The combination of crispy zucchini, tangy cranberry sauce, and flavorful breadcrumb coating is sure to please everyone. Serve them at your next party or gathering and watch them disappear!
