Preparation

Step 1

1. Preheat oven to 400°F. Coat insides of 12-hole muffin pan with cooking spray or line with muffin cups.

2. In mixing bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Stir in grated cheddar.

3. In another bowl, whisk together cranberry juice, vegetable oil and egg. Add juice mixture to dry ingredients along with apples and cranberries; stir just until dry ingredients are incorporated, but batter is still lumpy.

4. Fill muffin cups about two-thirds full. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until nicely browned on top and skewer inserted in center comes out clean. Let stand for about 1 minute before removing from pan.
