Ingredients
1 c. whole wheat flour1 c. all-purpose flour1/2 tsp salt1 tsp baking soda1/2 tsp cinnamon1/2 c. soy milk1 tbsp cider vinegar2 tbsp peanut oil (or vegetable oil)1/3 c. maple syrup1 c. applesauce ( I used unsweetened)3/4 c. chopped cranberries
Directions
makes 15 small muffins (about the size of cupcakes)

-preheat oven to 375 degrees F

- In a large bowl, sift together the flour, salt, baking soda, and cinnamon . Set aside.(Don't have a sifter? instead of using a spoon to mix these ingredients, use a whisk. )

- in a seperate bowl, mix together the milk, vinegar, oil, maple syrup, applesauce, and cranberries.

- add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix together gently until "just" mixed. DO NOT over mix, this will make your batter (and muffins) heavy and hard.

- spoon batter into muffin tins (lined with muffin cups). bake for 15-20 minutes. test with a toothpick to see if done.

VARIATIONS: you can use dried cranberries or raisins instead of chopped fresh cranberries for a less-tangy muffin. You can also use sweetened applesauce for a sweeter tasting muffin
