Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line 12 jumbo-sized muffin cups with paper liners.

Step 2

Stir flour, salt, and baking soda together in a bowl.

Step 3

Combine cranberries, 1 tablespoon sugar, and orange zest in another bowl. Toss until cranberries are evenly coated.

Step 4

Scoop batter evenly into the prepared muffin cups.

Step 5

Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the centers comes out clean, about 30 minutes. If necessary, turn pans in the oven after 20 minutes.
