Every time I make muffins they get stuck in the muffin tin, no matter how much butter I grease the edges with. Recently I had an epiphany: I could use cupcake liners for my muffins. That way they would just pop right out of the pan.
Yes, it's true, my epiphanies are usually sponsored by Obvious Inc.
Here's another one from Obvious Inc.: you can take a cranberry bread recipe and make muffins with it. That's what I did here. The bread recipe makes 12 small muffins. Top them with turbinado sugar to add a dash of something magical. I love the tartness of the cranberries married with the texture of the sugar crystals. The next time I make these, I'll add walnuts as well.
