Cranberry Orange Zucchini Muffins

These are a favorite quick bread in our home.


These muffins are rich with cinnamon, spice and everything you would want that shouts fall and holiday with flavors.


They're moist and buttery with a hint of orange zest and shredded zucchini, that keeps that freshness of summer flavors too.

Fresh Baked

When I heat one up in the morning I wrap them in foil with butter in my toaster oven.


The muffins come out just like I just baked them.


These are great split open, buttered then place on a griddle to toast!


Give these delicious Holiday muffins a try, they're so easy and the cranberry orange zucchini muffins will be a new favorite in your home too!
