Muffins – Cranberries, Pecans & Orange

Ingredients

(Makes about a dozen muffins with cupcake liner measuring 5cm in diameter by 3cm in height )

- 1 1/2 cups (190g) plain flour
- 1 1/2 eggs, beaten
- 1/2 tbsp baking powder
- 1 cup (225g) caster sugar
- grated zest of 1/2 unwaxed orange
- 40g pecans, finely chopped (set aside 10g)

- 1/2 cup (125 ml) milk
- 65 gms butter, cut to small pieces and melted at room temperature
- icing sugar (for decoration – optional)

Directions
1. Sift flour, baking powder and sugar together, and mix well.

4. Place baking cases in muffin tins. Spoon the mixture into the cases (each about 2/3 filled). Top with a small amount of chopped pecans and chopped cranberries.

5. Bake for roughly 20 minutes in preheated oven of 200C (400F) or until slightly golden brown. Allow to rest for several minutes on a wire rack. Use a sieve to dust icing sugar over the muffins to decorate if desired.

Brown Sugar and Banana Muffins with Pecans:



1/2 cup of butter, softened
1 cup firmly packed brown sugar
2 large eggs
1 cup mashed ripe bananas (2 large)
1 tsp cinnamon
1/4 cup buttermilk
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 1/4 cups of flour
1 cup of whole wheat flour
3/4 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 cup toasted pecans, chopped*

Beat the butter at medium speed with a mixer until creamy. Slowly add the brown sugar, beating until light and fluffy. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating just until blended after each one.

In a separate bowl, stir together the mashed bananas, cinnamon, buttermilk, and vanilla. Mix the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in another bowl; add to the butter mixture alternately with the banana mixture, beginning and ending with the flour mixture. Beat on low speed just until blended after each addition. Do not over-beat. Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tray, filling two thirds full. Sprinkle the pecans over each muffin evenly.

Bake for 20-25 minutes or until a tester inserted in the middle of a muffin comes out clean. Remove from pans immediately, and cool on wire racks. Serve slathered in butter if desired. Enjoy.

*Note: To toast the pecans, simply put in a dry skillet and cook on low for a few minutes until the nuts are toasted.
