Muffin Wednesday: Cranberry Orange

A bunch of meetings and such got in the way of Muffin Wednesday yesterday. So we had Muffin Thursday today!

I pulled some whole cranberries from the freezer to make Cranberry Orange Muffins from Sally's Baking Addiction. The recipe went together quickly and easily and created this beauties:

YUMMO!!!

I whipped up these alone because Jasper had brought me a cookie kit from his CE2 internship at Scratch and Grain. So after the muffins were out of the oven, Jasper and I made chocolate chip cookies.

He humored me with a photo :)

These were also quick and easy - especially since all the ingredients are premeasured for us. Jasper learned to use a cookie scoop and made perfect cookies for our enjoyment!

Muffin Wednesday: Coffee Cake

Muffin Wednesday is back!!!!

Baking muffins with my students was a pretty big deal in the past. But with duties added to my plate, it sorta fell by the wayside in recent years. But this year, we're making it a priority again!

Today, Beto and I whipped up some coffee cake muffins from a Scratch and Grain mix. The local business, featured on Shark Tank, is one of our internships, and they sometimes send over kits. Yes, please! This was the Organic Coffee Cake and Muffin Kit - just add milk, egg and butter.

Beto learned each step, from measuring butter to greasing the pan to stirring the batter and crumb topping. Then we shared with our friends: 

Yummo! A tasty treat for a fall-like morning in CE2 :)
