Seasonal! Nothing quite says “Good morning!” like a muffin. We’re, of course, speaking figuratively here; if you come across a muffin that actually talks, that’s out of our wheelhouse. But the point stands: there’s just something about waking up to a satisfying muffin on your plate that makes a morning feel special, and makes you feel ready to take on the day. That’s precisely the feeling we intend to evoke with TJ's Cranberry Pecan Muffins. This four-pack of maple-y Muffins plays to every one of the genre’s strengths: a crumbly, cakey texture (thanks, sour cream!), zippy hints of orange zest, and, of course, plenty of bright fresh Cranberries and toothsome Pecans in each bite. The finishing touch of streusel topping makes them extra special, indeed.
While they’re perfectly delicious when enjoyed as a quick, on- the-go breakfast snack or brunch side, we contend that they truly excel when heated up a bit in the toaster oven or microwave — the maple syrup aromatics alone are well worth the price of admission. After that, we recommend a generous application of Cultured Salted Butter.
