Cranberry Orange Oatmeal Muffins

A delicious simple muffin. 

Great relaxing with a coffee,
or getting kids out the door in the morning.
A sweet treat, if you top it off with cream cheese icing!  

What you need:
*preheat oven to 400'~ makes 12 muffins
2 2/3 cups of flour
1 1/2 cups of steel cut oats
* I used steel cut oats, with flax & bran 
2/3 cup sugar
4 tsps baking powder
1/2 tsp of salt
2 tsps of cinnamon
2 tsps of brown sugar

Combine dry ingredients in a large bowl.
Make a well in the centre of dry ingredients. 

In another bowl combine:
2 eggs~ beaten
1 1/2 cups skim, or unsweetened almond milk
1/2 cup oil 
1 cup chopped cranberries
* I used frozen, unsweetened
3 tbsps frozen concentrated orange juice

Combine wet ingredients, then pour in well of dry ingredients.
Mix all ingredients together until just combined. 
Scoop into a lightly oiled muffin tin. 

Bake for 18 minutes. 
Allow to cool completely, top with cream cheese icing.
Enjoy!
