My favorite are the muffins, particularly the cranberry walnut ones. While I’ve been watching what I eat lately I can’t help but get one of these muffins when I go down to the park for a breath of fresh air, especially now that the weather is starting to get colder. For some reason, Fall is muffin time, or something.

But no more! Or at least, much less! I will do some research and pull together an ultimate Cranberry Walnut Muffin recipe! It will start with some that I look up of course, but recipes are starting points, not rule books. Ideally I’d like to come up with a really good muffin base (whole wheat probably) and then tweak it for different varieties of muffins.

While I’ve always been very at home in the kitchen historically I’ve been a little less comfortable when it comes to baking. I tackled that starting a couple years ago when I began to make some basic cakes (with homemade strawberry cream cheese frosting of course) and then moved on to breads (French bread is my specialty). And now, MUFFINS.

I’ll be sure to post the results. Hopefully I’ll have a chance to make some this Sunday.
