  • measuring spoons

Ingredients
  

muffins

  • 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 0.25 teaspoon baking soda
  • 0.25 teaspoon salt
  • 0.5 cups sugar
  • 2 large eggs, lightly beaten
  • 0.75 cups milk
  • 0.33 cups vegetable oil
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 3 tablespoons freshly grated orange zest
  • 1.5 cups fresh cranberries

streusel

  • 3 tablespoons light brown sugar
  • 3 tablespoons sugar
  • 0.5 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 0.25 teaspoon salt
  • 0.25 cups unsalted butter, melted
  • 0.75 cups all-purpose flour

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a muffin tin with liners.
  • In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon and baking soda.
  • In a larger bowl, whisk together the sugar and the eggs until combined. Whisk in the milk and vegetable oil. Whisk in the vanilla extract.
  • Add the dry ingredients to the wet, mixing until just combined. Stir in the orange zest and cranberries. Fill the muffin liners about ⅔ of the way full. Sprinkle the streusel on top of the batter, pressing gently so it sticks to the batter.
  • Bake the muffins for 18 to 20 minutes, or until the center is set and the crumb is golden. Serve!
  • To make the crumb topping, whisk together the sugar, cinnamon, salt and melted butter until combined. Whisk for a good minute or two until the sugar begins to dissolve, then use a wooden spoon to stir in the flour. The mixture will be crumb-like and dry.
