Equipment
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons orange zest
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup spelt flour, or more all-purpose flour
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 cup dairy-free milk, like oat milk*
- 1/2 cup orange juice
- 1/3 cup neutral oil
- 1 teaspoon vanilla**
- 1 cup chopped fresh cranberries
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
- Add the orange zest to the sugars in a large bowl and use your hands to mix in the orange zest into the sugar to release their oils. Whisk in the flours, salt and baking powder.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, orange juice, oil and vanilla. Add into the dry ingredients and mix until combined. Fold in the chopped cranberries.
- Divide the batter into a well-greased muffin tin and baking for 30 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
Notes
*I prefer oat milk in my vegan baked goods as it browns like cow's milk.
**I also tested this recipe with almond extract an it was delicious!
***If you like walnuts with your orange cranberry muffins (like in my vegan cranberry bread) then you can fold in 1/2 cup finely chopped walnuts.
