Vanilla muffins with cranberries in milk

6 servings

45 minutes

Vanilla muffins with cranberry made from milk are a refined treat of French cuisine, combining the tenderness and lightness of the dough with the refreshing tartness of cranberries. Their history goes back centuries when French pastry chefs aimed to create an exquisite delicacy for tea or coffee. The buttery dough infused with vanilla aroma offers softness and airiness, while the berries add an elegant contrasting flavor. Serving them warm or slightly chilled allows you to enjoy their melting effect. Perfect for cozy breakfasts, festive gatherings, or simply moments of indulgence. Enhance them with a light dusting of powdered sugar or cream for even greater sophistication.
