Cranberry Muffins with Cinnamon Brown Sugar Streusel Topping are a great treat to bring to a breakfast or brunch or have at a wedding or baby shower. The sweet cranberries topped with the crunchy cinnamon brown sugar streusel topping will leave you wanting seconds.
Thanksgiving seems like so long ago even though it was really only two months ago. We spent Thanksgiving weeks at my parent’s house in Tennessee which meant lots of delicious cooking with my Mom! These Cranberry Muffins with Cinnamon Brown Sugar Streusel Topping were on the cooking agenda one day and they were a huge hit. I have been meaning to share them with you but they kept getting put on the back burner. They shouldn’t have though, because they are so tasty!
Muffins are always a huge hit in my house, especially with my son. He loves anything in the form of a muffin which is why I love making things like these Carrot and Zucchini Muffins so I can sneak some veggies in there! Cranberries are one of my favorite additions to breads and muffins but if you can’t find cranberries you could substitute blueberries or any other berry for that matter.
One of my favorite things about these muffins is the streusel topping. I love the crunchy cinnamon and brown sugar that tops the muffin and gives it that sweetness with every bite. These would be a great addition to a brunch or breakfast or even a baby or wedding shower. Or heck, do you really need a reason to make these? How about just because!
