easy cranberry muffins

Oh! There is a story to go with these Easy Cranberry Recipes muffins. I got busted by my children for not eating breakfast. I rarely do. I grab my Spark Drink and I dropped them off at school and then I go to the gym. Then I grab a handful of almonds and I drive home to work. I work for a little bit and then I eat lunch. That was until my daughter noticed I wasn’t eating breakfast and she asked why. I told her I just didn’t have time. She then decided she didn’t have time either. She sat down in front of my computer and said ,”I am busy I can’t eat..” That my friends encouraged me to make something I could eat quickly, freeze for later, and throw in my purse for right after I work out. They are good hot or cold and according to my daughter they make the house smell just lovely. They are also Gluten Free and they can be made dairy free as well. We now love them they are our go to breakfast food and snack. The kids have asked me to add different toppings to them so I let them each make 6 muffins.

If using toppings add them onto the tops of muffins now. If using fresh or frozen fruit, drop it right into the batter.
You will bake them for 30 minutes or until they are golden brown. I place mine on a cooling rack. Then I put them in a freezer bag which I labeled with I put on the toppings.
