Eggless Cranberry Muffins Recipe

Eggless Cranberry Muffins as Breakfast

When Sruti started her sixth standard, her school timings changed. She is supposed to be there in the bus stop by 7 am. At first she had so much trouble adjusting with the timing. But now she has got used to it. As 7 am is too early for breakfast, I usually send her breakfast in lunch boxes. Yeah, I only send her breakfast. Her school canteen takes care of her lunch. So I decided this recipe would be apt for those who are like me, who send their kid’s breakfast in a lunch box.

When I started paleo, I read somewhere that all types of berries can be eaten in paleo. As the craving was so high during the first month, I went and bought this dried cranberries ( click on link to buy from Amazon. This is my favourite. I regularly stock it up) thinking that they are super healthy. Even the pack says they are so healthy. But once I came home, I checked the package and there it was written that it has added sugar.

Here goes my diet out of the window if I consume it. So I have been using this pack for Sruti’s dishes and I never once tasted them. Coming to this muffin, this is so easy to make. The recipe makes 12 muffins, but as only Sruti will be eating, I halved the recipe and made six muffins. The crust is beautiful and crisp whereas the crumb is so soft. The cranberry and cashews add a nice flavour and texture to the muffins.

  1. As always perfectly baked , well these dried preserved fruits do have some amount of sugar , and obviously not the right kind of diet food .

  2. i love dried cranberries. Fresh cranberries are somewhat bitter. So I guess sugar has to added to make them edible. I would love to make these muffins using wheat flour. I a bid to make my bakes healthy i am trying to use healthy flour instead of maida

  3. I love dried cranberries, sugar or no sugar. Love cranberry muffins as they are such a great treat. Am sure your daughter must have been happy to get these muffins in her breakfast box.
