Today is the beginning of the last month of 2011. December means two things generally - holidays and baked goods. Perfect for a baking enthusiast like me. When I announced 'Bake-A-Thon' for the entire month of December, I wasn't sure that anyone would join me since it is crazy to bake every day and blog about it for a month. But, I did have 4 other bloggers join me in this adventure. So, together we will all bake and blog about it every day for the entire month. Towards the end, we probably will have covered almost every category of baking.
Joining me in this month long 'Bake-A-Thon' are:
Susan of The WellSeasoned Cook,
Preethi of IsingCakes,
Veena Krishna Kumar of VeenasVegnation,
Priya Suresh of Priya's Easy N Tasty Recipes.
These Cranberry Corn Muffin recipe is adapted from an old recipe for Blueberry Corn Muffin recipe. Addition of cranberries gives it an unusual tang which, people will like it if and only if they like the tang taste. If you are not a big fan of fresh cranberries, use sweetened dried cranberries in its place.

Ingredients:
All purpose flour - 1 cup
Fine ground corn meal - 1 cup (I used yellow cornmeal)
Sugar - 1/2 cup
Baking powder - 2 tsp
Baking soda - 1 tsp
Salt - 1/2 tsp
Oil - 1/4 cup
Egg - 1 Large
Vanilla - 1 tsp
Buttermilk - 1 cup
Cranberries - 1 - 1 1/2 cups (fresh rinsed and pat dry)
Method:
Preheat the oven to 375 F. Line a 12 cup muffin pan with paper liners or grease. In a bowl, whisk together flour, cornmeal, baking soda, baking powder, salt and sugar. In another bowl, whisk together buttermilk, oil, egg, vanilla. Pour the wet mixture to dry mixture and stir to combine. Do not over mix. Stir in the cranberries. Fill the muffin cups to almost full. This batter makes 12 standard sized muffins. Bake for 25 - 28 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool on the rack in the pan for 10 minutes and then remove to cool on the rack completely. Serve warm or at room temperature.
Enjoy.
