2 c all purpose flour
1/2 c milk
1/4 c orange juice + 1 tsp for glaze if desired, or use cranberry juice for just that one flavor
1/4 c yogurt or vegetable oil
1 egg
1/2 c sugar
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 c dried cranberries
1 tbsp orange zest or more if you want to add some on top of the glaze

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. and zest orange. In a cup mix orange juice and milk together. Set aside.
In a bowl mix together egg, oil and sugar. Then add milk mixture.
In another bowl mix together dry ingredients, then fold into wet mixture until well blended. Fold in dried cranberries.
Line muffin pan with papers and fill 3/4 of the way full. Bake 18 minutes or just until tops are very lightly browned and middle springs back when gently touched in the center.
Remove from pan and set on cooling rack, enjoy. If you want to make a glaze, whisk together 1 cup powdered sugar with just enough orange juice or water to make the thickness you want. Drizzle on top with a bit of zest.
