Baking is one of my favorite hobbies and although I do it year-round, it is especially nice in the cooler months. Fall baking is some of my favorite comfort food. From cookies to bread to muffins, I like to have baked goodies in the kitchen all the time.
Since I like to bake so much, it’s helpful to buy things in bulk. I have a Maple Walnut Muffin recipe that is delicious. When the weather starts to cool down, I switch up my recipe just a bit by adding Ocean Spray® Craisins® Dried Cranberries. I love the zing that the cranberries add to these sweet muffins. Did you know that 1/4 a cup of Ocean Spray® Craisins® Dried Cranberries is the same as 1/2 a cup of fruit?
I made this batch of these muffins on Saturday and they’ve already been devoured!
Sam’s Club is the place to go for bulk items. If you haven’t been able to find Ocean Spray® Craisins® Dried Cranberries at your local Sam’s Club, I found them at Harris Teeter on the dried fruit aisle.
