For the muffins:

  • ¾ cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon almond extract
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 1 ½ cup frozen cranberries
  • 1 cup apples, sliced, peeled, and diced

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray muffin tin with baking spray. Set aside.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, beat butter, eggs, vanilla extract, almond extract and sugar until well blended. Add in flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
