Cranberries are here! These bright red, tart, glossy berries look and taste wonderful in bakes. These quick cranberry and white chocolate muffins are sure to tempt you to bake a batch :). The sweetness of the white chocolate and soft muffin is perfectly balanced by the sharp bursts of cranberries. Another bonus \u2013 they stay fresh for quite a long time.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

• 2 teaspoons baking powder<\/li>\n
• \u00bd teaspoon bicarbonate of soda<\/li>\n
