  Living in rural France Cranberies are not readily available so I used a good cranberry sauce. It worked very well and cut out one process of the recipe. They froze well and went down a storm for brekkies at Christmas with the family.

  That's funny I live in France too but luckily managed to find Cranberries in Leclerc and a local Deli/epicerie. These muffins were delicous I made them for the school teachers as a Christmas gift and one of them has just asked me for the recipe because they loved them so much. Definately a winner!

  My batter turned a horrible color when I mixed in the berries but luckily they baked up alright. The taste is VERY good! I am going to play a little bit with less sugar and possibly part wholewheat flour next time and see how they come out.

  Really great and moist muffins, my husband especially loved them. In Norway cranberries are not that easy to come by, but I used dried cranberries that I heated with some water in addition to the sugar and that worked great.

  I can't get hold of any fresh cranberries now, so does anyone have any ideas as to what I could use instead?

  OMG!! I used up some very ripe cherries instead of cranberries in this recipe.... stoned them and just added them in. I was light on caster sugar so used soft brown instead in the main recipe part (used what caster I had left with the cream cheese) and added in a teaspoon of almond essence..... They are SO good!!!

  Carnavel girl - They froze well and went down a storm for brekkies at Christmas with the family. Many thanks for that comment.... as that was my next question! Making another batch today in payment for something a neighbour gave us.... she just can't get enough of my version with the cherries in... so will give her a whole batch and she can freeze the ones she can't eat!

  I've made these with both cranberries and blueberries and love both versions, in fact I'm making blueberry ones again today. The cream cheese is just delicious and they always go down a treat :)
