Cranberry Orange Morning Muffins

When mixing muffins, remember that the batter will be slightly lumpy – and that’s OK.  This helps to keep the muffins moist while baking.

Ingredients:

• 2 egg whites, or egg-white substitute equal to 1 egg
• 1 C skim milk
• 1 C fresh cranberries, cut up
• 1/4 C canola oil
• 2 C all-purpose flour
• 1/4 C sugar
• 1 Tbsp. orange peel, grated
• 3 tsp. baking powder
• 1 tsp. salt

Directions:

Place the eggs in a large mixing bowl and beat slightly. Add in the milk,  cranberries, and oil. Stir well. Add the flour, sugar, orange peel, baking powder, and salt. Mix until just moistened.

Pre-heat oven to 400 degrees. Spray the muffin cups with a non-stick cooking spray. Fill each cup 3/4 full of batter. Bake 25 minutes or until muffins are a light brown.
