FRESH CRANBERRY PUMPKIN MUFFINS
From an Ocean Spray Cranberry flyer that I found in my huge collection of saved recipe clipouts. I love cranberries and I love the flavor of pumpkin so of course I love putting the two together in any baked good. Remember, if using fresh cranberries that you've frozen to save for later, do not thaw the frozen cranberries before using - they will turn to mushy.

QUICK CRANBERRY PUMPKIN MUFFINS
I have been making these for years. I used to make them in bread form, but having 7 children it was just easier to dole out a muffin than cut up the messy loaf. I also began giving these out as Christmas food gifts. This was requested by my 17-year-old son for our dessert we have to bring to his football banquet. My 21-year-old daughter who moved to Ogden, Utah with her husband and 2 kids wants to make these muffins for her in-laws who will be spending the Thanksgiving holidays with them.

Tips:
- Use fresh cranberries: Fresh cranberries give these muffins a tart and tangy flavor. If you can't find fresh cranberries, you can use frozen cranberries. Just thaw them before using.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the muffins tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Fill the muffin cups evenly: To ensure that the muffins bake evenly, fill the muffin cups evenly. You can use a cookie scoop to make this easier.
- Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This is the best way to tell if the muffins are done baking. If the toothpick comes out with batter on it, bake the muffins for a few minutes longer.
- Let the muffins cool before serving: Let the muffins cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. This will help to prevent the muffins from breaking.
Conclusion:
These fresh cranberry pumpkin muffins are a delicious and festive treat that is perfect for fall. They are easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. So next time you're looking for a delicious and seasonal muffin recipe, give these cranberry pumpkin muffins a try!
