Almond cranberry muffin
This cake contains two types of cranberries at once - fresh and dried, as well as almonds in two forms - chopped and in the form of flour. It is the almond flour that makes this cake so airy. And the sweet icing not only decorates the cake, but also sets off the cranberry sourness.
