Ingredients

Scale

Batter

2 cups all purpose flour

3/4 cup sugar

2 tsp baking powder

1/2 tsp salt

1/2 cup Greek yogurt

1/2 cup oil

1 1/2 cups cranberries

2 oranges

2 eggs

Struessel Topping

1/4 cup butter

1/4 cup sugar

1/2 cup flour

Instructions

    1. In a large bowl, combine all the dry ingredients and mix them. Create a well in the middle to pour in the wet ingredients. Set aside.

    1. Using a zester, remove all the zest from the oranges. Set aside.

    1. Slice the oranges in half. Using a manual juicer, squeeze all the juice out of the oranges. One orange yields about 1/4 cup of orange juice.

    1. In the well of the dry ingredients, crack the eggs and whisk with a hand whisk until combined.

    1. Add the Greek yogurt, oil, orange juice, and zest in the middle of the well. Whisk all the wet ingredients in the well, keeping the dry ingredients along the bowl's edge.

    1. Using a spatula, mix the wet and dry ingredients just until combined. DO NOT OVERMIX!

    1. Add the cranberries to the batter and fold them in.

    1. Using a cookie scooper, distribute the batter evenly into the pan.

    1. Make the struessel topping.

        • Cut the cold butter into small cubes.

        • Combine flour, sugar, and cubed butter in a bowl. Using a pastry cutter, press the butter into the flour and sugar until you get a crumbly consistency.

    1. Sprinkle the streusel crumb on the muffin batter.

    1. Place in the oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the muffin comes out clean.

    1. Cool for 10 minutes and enjoy!
