Apple and Cranberry Muffins

Turned out very good. I was worried how they would turn out considering that there was absolutely no butter or oil in the recipe at all! They didn't rise as much as more traditional recipes but turned out great with a lovely rustic home-made appearance. Not too sweet, lots of chunks of apple and cranberries, bursts of sweet vs. sour. The texture was slightly like a sponge cake. I would recommend filling the muffin cup from 2/3 up to full.

A truly amazing combination of flavors. The dressing is divine, the warm and tart goat cheese combined with the sweetness of apple ring is truly out of this world.
