Cranberry Zucchini Muffins Recipes

Steps:

• Position racks in upper and lower thirds of oven and preheat to 375°F. Butter muffin cups (if pans are not nonstick, butter liberally or spray with nonstick cooking spray).
• In large bowl, whisk together all-purpose and whole-wheat flours, cocoa, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. Stir in zucchini.
• In medium bowl, whisk together eggs and brown sugar. Whisk in sour cream and oil. Fold wet mixture into dry until just combined (do not overmix). Gently fold in cranberries and pecans.
• Divide batter among muffin cups, filling each cup 3/4 full. Bake until dark golden on top and toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, 10 to 12 minutes. Cool in pan on rack 10 minutes, then serve warm or turn out onto rack to cool completely. (Muffins can be made up to 3 days ahead and stored in airtight container at room temperature, or frozen in airtight container up to 2 weeks. Defrost in refrigerator, then rewarm, if desired, wrapped in foil in 300°F oven 7 to 10 minutes.)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F Grease muffin tin; set aside.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon and salt; set aside.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, sugars, applesauce and vanilla. Stir in the zucchini.
• Add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, and stir to combine; do not overmix. Using a rubber spatula fold in the cranberries. Divide the batter evenly among the 12 cups.
• Bake, rotating the pan halfway through, until the muffins are golden, 25 to 30 minutes. Transfer the pan to a wire rack to cool for 10 minutes. Turn the muffins on their sides in their cups, and cool.
• Bread Variation: Follow instructions for muffins, transferring batter to a 9x5 loaf pan, buttered or sprayed with non-stick spray. Bake at 375 F, rotating the pan halfway through, 45-50 minutes. Transfer to wire rack to cool before serving.
