Orange Cranberry Muffins

"Was looking for some new muffin recipes and found this on allrecipes.com. The original didn't include cranberries and said it was an old Mennonite recipe."

INGREDIENTS:

2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup white sugar
1 tablespoon grated orange zest
2/3 cup orange juice
1/2 cup melted butter
2 eggs
1 cup dried cranberries

Topping:
1 tablespoon melted butter
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

DIRECTIONS:

Combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, white sugar and grated orange peel. Stir in orange juice, 1/2 cup melted butter, eggs and cranberries.
Pour into 12 muffin cups.
Blend 1 tablespoon melted margarine, 1/4 cup brown sugar, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon and sprinkle on top of each muffin. Bake in a preheated 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) oven for 20-25 minutes.
