Autumn Recipe Thanksgiving

Leftover Cranberry Sauce Muffins

There are plenty of great recipes out there for what to do with leftover turkey from Thanksgiving, but what about all that cranberry sauce? My Great Aunt makes amazing homemade cranberry every year, but there is always some leftover and it seems like a same to throw it out. Thats where this muffin recipe comes in handy!

The insides are soft and delicious, while the top is golden and crispy!

(I’m sorry about the poor quality of the photos! I took these last year at Thanksgiving before I started using my big Canon camera, so please bear with me.)

I always want to pull the delicious top off right away. Its so crispy and delicious!

If you’re looking to make these into more of a dessert, spread some cream cheese icing on top! I used the icing recipe from my Carrot Cake Cupcakes.

    You’ve always got the best recipes and pretty much every one, I’m like “damn, I need to make that!”

    (PS. Halloween Haunt was ok, I thought it was better last year, but that doesn’t mean that I didn’t still get scared in every maze-because I did! Either way, it’s good for a fun night out!)

    For this recipe, is it imperative to use the whole wheat flour, or can you just use regular baking flour?

    Hi Diane,

    You can use all purpose flour instead if you prefer that to whole wheat.

    All the best,
    Amanda
