Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.75 cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter (melted and cooled)
- 0.75 cup milk
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup dried cranberries
- 1 cup chopped walnuts
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a standard 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease the cups.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
Step 3
In a separate medium-sized bowl, whisk together the melted butter, milk, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Step 4
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently fold together using a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined. Do not overmix, as this can result in dense muffins.
Step 5
Gently fold in the dried cranberries and chopped walnuts, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Step 6
Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 to 3/4 full.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Step 8
Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 9
Serve warm or at room temperature. Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
