- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
- ½ cup fresh orange juice
- 1 tablespoon orange zest

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease it.
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
In a separate bowl, mix the melted butter, orange juice, orange zest, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Gently fold in the cranberries and chopped pecans.
