One of my Thanksgiving traditions is to make cranberry bread, a favorite of the family. It was very time consuming though to wash and chop up the cranberries. Sometimes the bread came out a little dry.
Now, instead of using raw whole cranberries, I use canned whole cranberry jelly. It makes the bread so much moister. I don't use quite as much of it as the raw cranberry.
Everyone likes the bread even better.
I'm going to try it with your recipe for muffins. Will let everyone know how it worked out.
