Not big on the really sweet muffins, like tart?? - THIS MUFFIN IS FOR YOU! I took the advice of a few reviewers ~ put some sugar on the top of the muffins the last 5 minutes of baking. Added a 1/2 cup of milk chocolate chips and made 6 large muffins instead of 12 of the smaller muffins. The consistency of the muffins is GREAT! The taste is wonderful. I'm a big cranberry fan so this was a hit for me. The kids weren't real fond of the tartness of the cranberry, but they still ate it. *probably because of the chocolate chips ;-)* Next time I make these muffins I will double or triple the recipe and freeze some of them. One last thing, I did chop the cranberries with just a knife but will use my food processor next time.

These were easy to make and they were tart! ( which was fine) I took them out of the oven before the 20 minutes so they would not be so tough, and they turned out light and fluffy.

This recipe has several problems. First off, there is way too much liquid for the amount of flour. The muffins don't rise at all because the batter is so thin. Also, they come out very sour. All around unappetizing. Sorry, but I won't make this again.

Delicious! Just what I was looking for. I made a few changes after reading others' comments, plus a few changes of my own. I added a little more oil, a 1/2 tsp. vanilla, and substituted brown sugar for the white. I also sprinkled the tops with sugar after they came out of the oven. I think the best thing I did, though, was to stew dried cranberries in orange juice before adding them. That helped sweeten the cranberries and gave more orange flavor to the muffins. The only problem I had was the muffins didn't raise very well (possibly due to the heaviness of the stewed cranberries). Next time I'll try adding an extra tsp. of baking powder.

This recipe was great but I stewed my cranberries in the orange juice first to mush them up a bit!

With a few minor changes these muffins were awesome! As others suggested, I added 1/3 cup brown sugar instead of white so as to make the muffins less tart. Instead of cranberries I used cranberry sauce w/ whole berries. It made the muffins much more moist. I also didn't add the salt. Mmm Mmm...

These were pretty tasty. I made them lower in fat by subbing 1/3 cup applesauce + 1 T oil. I also used 1 t. orange extract instead of the orange zest, and subbed 1/3 cup brown sugar for the 1/4 cup white sugar because I prefer brown and read they were a little tart. I used 1 cup (dried, soaked, chopped) cranberries + 1/2 cup chopped walnuts. So basically this was a great jumping off recipe for me! ;-)

Love these!!! I've made them many times. The girls at work love them. The only difference that I make, is I ad some vanilla to the batter. Good stuff!

These muffins came out a little drier than I would have preferred. The combo of orange & cranberry is wonderful. I used orange flavored dried cranberries which added more taste. Would have been perfect if a little moister.

I used 1/2 tbsp of orange marmalade instead of orange zest, and 1 cup of raspberries instead of 1 1/2 cup cranberries. I used orange juice with bits of pulp and it made the muffins seem very healthy and fruity. They are very nice, light and moist. I will make these again!

My muffins came out kind of flat. They tasted okay (I added extra sugar like others recommended), however, I don't think I'll make them again.

Very tangy and good. I added 1/3 cup quick-cooking oats and 1/2 cup chopped pecans. As a previous reviewer recommended, I soaked the chopped cranberries in sugar water overnight and I believe this helped cut the tartness a bit. My husband loved them, and he is not usually a big fan of muffins.

This was a wonderfully moist recipie. The orange juice gave it a refreshing taste... wonderful in the morning. The only trouble I had was that they did not rise very much. I would add more than 2/3 per muffin cup. Otherwise they are perfect!

I didn't really like these muffins...I think there were too many cranberries. If I ever made them again I would put less cranberries and a little bit more sugar.
