Cranberry Oat Ricotta Muffins
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup rolled oats, plus extra for sprinkling
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 5 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup dark brown sugar
- 1 large egg
- 3/4 cup ricotta cheese
- 1/2 teaspoon orange zest
- 1 cup whole fresh cranberries
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F and place paper liners in a twelve cup muffin pan.
- In a medium sized bowl, whisk together the flour, oats, baking soda, baking powder and salt. Set aside.
- In a larger bowl (or the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment), cream together the butter and sugars, until light and fluffy. Add the egg and beat until well incorporated. Next, add the ricotta and orange zest, and mix gently to combine.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet, and mix lightly, just until incorporated. Fold in the cranberries.
- Scoop the batter into the muffin tins, and bake until the muffins are puffed and golden and pass a toothpick test, about 25 minutes.
- Let cool on a rack, and serve with generous pats of butter.
