These cranberry-orange muffins are big on flavor and not overly sweet. Lots of tart cranberries, sweet orange juice, and zest kick up the flavor. Best when made with fresh cranberries, fresh orange juice, and lots of pulp! My family loves them without the glaze, but some of my sweet-toothed friends prefer it with, as the muffins are only slightly sweet on their own.

Original recipe (1X) yields 12 servings

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
1 ⅓ cups fresh cranberries
¾ cup orange juice
½ cup white sugar
⅓ cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled
1 egg
1 orange, zested

Glaze:

1 cup confectioners' sugar
1 tablespoon orange juice, or more as needed
1 pinch grated orange zest

Directions

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
Whisk flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together in a large bowl; stir in cranberries.
Whisk 3/4 cup orange juice, white sugar, melted butter, egg, and zest of 1 orange together in a separate bowl; stir into flour mixture just until moistened. Do not overmix. Spoon into the prepared muffin cups.
Bake in the preheated oven until lightly browned and firm to the touch, 15 to 20 minutes. Cool in the tin for 5 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack; cool about 20 minutes.
Meanwhile, whisk confectioners' sugar, 1 tablespoon orange juice, and 1 pinch orange zest together in a small bowl. Add more orange juice, if necessary, to reach desired consistency. Drizzle glaze over cooled muffins.
