How to Make Cantaloupe Cranberry Muffins

  1. Gently drain 1/2 cup of frozen cantaloupe pulp, ensuring no excess water remains.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the drained cantaloupe pulp, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1 large egg, 1/2 cup plain yogurt, 1 teaspoon ground ginger, and 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon until well combined.
  3. Gently fold in 1/2 cup dried cranberries.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour and 1 teaspoon baking powder. Gradually add to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Fill greased or lined muffin cups about 3/4 full.
  6. Sprinkle 1/2 to 1 tablespoon of granola on top of each muffin.
  7. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cool in the muffin tin for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
