I threw these muffins together, and they were so good &#8211; that I went running all over town to buy more cranberries &#8211; three stores to be exact. No one had them. My last ditch effort was going to the market on 9th Street, where lo and behold one stand had them! I bought three bags and stuffed them in my freezer beside the 15 pound turkey I got on sale after Christmas &#8211; because by February, I always feel peckish for turkey and stuffing. Anyway, if you have cranberries in your freezer or can still buy them in your local market &#8211; make these muffins, they&#8217;re amazing! <!--more--><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>1 3\/4 cups flour<\/li>\n<li>1 teaspoon baking soda<\/li>\n<li>3\/4 teaspoon salt<\/li>\n<li>3\/4 teaspoon cinnamon<\/li>\n<li>1\/2 teaspoon nutmeg<\/li>\n<li>1\/4 teaspoon cloves<\/li>\n<li>1\/4 teaspoon allspice<\/li>\n<li>1\/4 teaspoon ginger<\/li>\n<li>1 1\/2 cups sugar<\/li>\n<li>1\/2 cup vegetable oil<\/li>\n<li>2 large eggs<\/li>\n<li>1 cup pumpkin<\/li>\n<li>1 teaspoon vanilla extract<\/li>\n<li>1 cup cranberries, cut in half<\/li>\n<li>1\/2 cup chopped walnuts<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ol>\n<li>Line 2 muffin pans with 18 liners.
