Cranberry Chocolate Chip Muffin

This is our favorite muffin recipe so far as it is easy to prepare and yet delicious. Whenever we are running out of bread or cornflakes for breakfast, we will just go into the kitchen and start baking our favorite muffin. It is all ready in less than an hour.

Ingredients:
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup all purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup whole wheat flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • dash of salt
  • 1 cup halved frozen/fresh cranberry
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips
Steps:
  1. Whisk the eggs in a large bowl.
  2. Gradually stir in the oil and sugar to the egg.
  3. In another large bowl, whisk together the all purpose flour, whole wheat flour, baking soda and salt.
  4. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  5. With a spatula, fold the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir only until all ingredients are combined. Do not over mix the batter as it will result in tough muffins.
  6. Stir in the cranberry and the chocolate chips.
  7. Evenly fill the muffin cups with the batter.
  8. Place the muffin cups in the oven and bake until a toothpick inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean. (about 14-18 minutes).
  9. Transfer to a wire rack and let cool for about 5 minutes before removing from tray.
This recipe makes 6 regular sized muffins.
