These just came outta the oven! They are delish! I made a few changes: my grocery store didn't have fresh cranberries and I had some dried cherries on hand, and we have an egg allergy so I subbed the egg for flaxseed. I wish I had fresh cranberries as I think that would have made these a million times better, but they are great! Thanks!

So, after I ate all the ones I made last week, I decided to try a new combination.... I made lemon blueberry! Holy-yum! I used your recipe, but used the juice of one lemon, lemon zest and rice milk instead of orange juice. And I used fresh blueberries. ::swoon:: thanks for this recipe, I love how versatile it is. I can't wait to come up with more combinations. One note: another commenter mentioned that the muffins were dry when they used dried cranberries instead of fresh. I found that to be the case the first time I made these with dried fruit. However when I used fresh blueberries they were so incredibly moist. I think the fresh fruit is really the key!!

Made these today and they are amazing! Didn't have coconut oil so just subbed veg oil and added an orange glaze bc I had more oj to use up and powdered sugar on hand. Thx for the great recipe!

I made these and they turned out great. very yummy.

Krista, they turned out absolutely perfect!!!! No need to be scared about beady coconut oil :) Thanks for the recipe

Hi can I use self raising flour white on your skinny chocolate muffins?

These muffins are fantastic, on my second batch in two days as my young kids loved them, fresh cranberries and all!  I did sub half whole wheat flour , 1/4 maple syrup with 1/4 sugar, added ground flax and chia and added a bit of vanilla Greek yogurt for extra moistness due to the addition of whole wheat flour and flax/chia.  Awesome!  Thank you so much!

What better to do on a crisp cool day than to bake. I changed this up a little, used 1/2 whole wheat , 1/2 white flour; put my cranberries in the chopper; juiced a large orange then added the orange pieces left into my batter; &amp; lastly a little cinnamon essence. The batter tastes delish. Can't wait till they're done. Thanks much for this recipe.

I just made the Cranberry Orange  muffins. They smell and taste amazing. The only thing I changed was I add a Flaxseed egg (1 T flaxseeds with 2.5 T warm water)  instead of a real egg since I am Vegan..  Thank you for this yummy recipe

Made these today, but I didn't have a muffin tin, so I made them into a loaf. I did a couple things different- I added almost a 1/4 C of bloomed Chia seeds, and I re-hydrated the cranberries in OJ before adding them to the dry batter, and only used 1/2 C of OJ, since I was adding other liquids (in the cranberries and the Chia) and finally I used sugar substitute! VERY PROUD OF MYSELF, since I love to coo but backing is not my forte!

Fantastic! Just made these with a couple of tweaks since I am on weight watchers. Instead of sugar I used half the amount of splenda naturals applesauce instead of coconut oil. They were awesome! Thanks so much for the great recipe and the best part is they are only 3 points each! 😊

lol sorry...could that be the problem, the temp??
Thank you!

Delicious delicious delicious!!!! Right amount of sweetness and the hint of citrus made this very delightful!

Great recipe! Always want to go on the healthy side and this recipe was healthy and delicious!! However, I did make a few adjustments. I substituted unsweetened applesauce instead of coconut oil and I added two overly ripe bananas that needed to be used ASAP. Yummy and definitely make again :)

I live an area known for orange production so always have an abundance this time of year. This recipe was a great way to use up some of the fruit and enjoy a delicious treat.
