I made these this morning for the first time. They turned out really
good; I think they could use some nuts though, and maybe increase the
sugar to 2/3 cups next time.

I wonder if adding some orange zest or a little allspice would be good:


*Cranberry Sauce Muffins*
1 cup all purpose flour
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
1 cup rolled oats
1/2 cup sugar
1 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 (16 ounce) can "whole berry" cranberry sauce
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 egg

Procedure
1. Heat oven to 400°F. Spray muffin tin with Pam® or other cooking spray.
2. In a large bowl, combine dry ingredients; mix well. Make a little
well in the center.
3. In a separate bowl or cup, combine milk, oil, and egg; blend well
with a fork. Add to dry ingredients; stir a little and immediately
follow with the cranberry sauce. Fold until dry ingredients are
moistened. Don't worry if it's lumpy.
4. Fill muffin cups about three-quarters full. Fill any unused cups in
the muffin tin 1/3 full of water so the muffins will cook more evenly.
5. Bake 18 to 20 minutes or until golden brown. Loosen muffins from tin
as quickly as possible and turn them sideways to cool so they don't
steam themselves and get soggy bottoms.

Makes about 16 muffins
