I loved these. I added extra canberries and some pecans yum
Oh, I’m so glad you liked the recipe!
2 of my favorite things.. oatmeal and eating.. lol thanks for the recipe share!
Those sound really good. I want to try these myself 🙂
I have leftover cranberries from Thanksgiving and this is a good solution to using them. Thanks!
Okay I want one of those for breakfast tomorrow. I guess I will have to go to the grocery store and buy me some cranberries.
I couldn’t tell you why, but as much as I have baked over the years, I have yet to do anything with cranberries! Silly, because I LOVE cranberries, and they’re cheap, too. I’ve pinned this recipe for later. Will definitely be making these soon! They’ll make a great, healthy snack for my toddler. Thank you so much for sharing. I can’t wait to try them!
These look delicious and the recipe sounds so healthy. I am going to have to make these.
This sounds amazing. Thank you for sharing, we enjoy muffins for breakfast.
Thanks for sharing the recipe! My son loves muffins, and I’m always on the lookout for interesting muffin flavors to try. 🙂
Cranberries are an all-time fave for me, so these look great. I like a nice warm muffin every now and again w/a cup of coffee.
I love cranberries. This looks really good. I’ll have to try making this soon.
What a wonderful combination! I will have to try this! Thank you for sharing!
This absolutely delicious! I bet apple and cranberry are delicious!
Looks so yummy and delicious! My husband love cranberries and oatmeal a lot. I hope he would really enjoy this dish. I have to try this for sure. Thanks for the sharing the recipe!
Oh I love cranberries in muffins. In order to make this vegan and cruelty-free, because I love animals … I would substitute coconut milk for the dairy milk, and applesauce or banana for the egg. Then I could really enjoy these with a clear conscience. Thank you 🙂
can I substitute sugar with agave or honey for muffins
With 1/2 cup of butter, I wouldn’t really label these “healthy”
Made these for breakfast this morning. So delishous! I used 1/2 cup of sugar instead of 3/4 and used 3 apples instead of 2. So yummy and easy, can’t wait to make again!
2nd time making these. Family likes them a lot! Using some leftover breakfast oatmeal this time around and cutting dry oatmeal down to compensate. Also, using dried cranberries instead of fresh.
There’s nothing very healthy about these muffins! No doubt they taste delicious, but with all that wheat flour, granulated white sugar, and butter, they can’t be considered “healthy.”
I substituted coconut oil for butter and apple sauce with a splash of maple syrup instead of sugar. Cut down some of the milk due to the added liquid. Turned out great!
