If it's getting chilly, it must be time to bake!

Although we're expecting temps to go up a bit this weekend, it's been delightfully fall-like here in RI the last few days.  You know, nights when you go to bed thinking that you don't need socks, only to wake up in a full-on cage fight with your spouse for the covers?  And mornings that are nippy enough to make you bundle up in jeans, thick socks & long sleeve shirts, just to find yourself wondering just how acceptable it would be to strip down to your skivvies in public, when the temps hit 80 in the afternoon?  Like I said, fall-like weather.

And once that weather hits, it's time to do some baking!  Today, Madeline and I made Cran-Orange Bran Muffins.

Cran-Orange Bran Muffins Recipe

These are QUITE tasty!  The recipe says it makes 17 muffins, but we got 20 out of the batter.  At around 150 calories each, they're not a diet-buster either. Cranberry & orange are two of my favorite flavors--we'll definitely make these again!

  1. Sounds yummy! Cranberry & orange are a "happy marriage" of flavors in my book, too!
