Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups flour
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • ¾ cup milk
  • ½ cup oil
  • 1 tsp orange zest
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • ½ cup mini chocolate chips or chopped semi sweet chocolate
  • 1 cup cranberries coarsely chopped

Instructions
 

  • Whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt in a small bowl. Scoop out about a tablespoon of the dry mixture and set it aside.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the sugar, eggs, milk, oil, orange zest and vanilla. Stir in flour mixture just until combined.
  • Add the reserved dry mixture to the chopped cranberries and stir to coat. Gently fold into the batter with the chocolate chips.

Cranberries are easier to chop if they are slightly frozen.
