Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line a muffin tin with paper liners and set aside.
In a medium sized bowl, whisk the flour, sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt together. Set it aside.
In a large bowl, whisk together the melted butter and eggs.
Add in the orange extract and buttermilk and continue to whisk. Add the zest and whisk.
Add in the dry ingredients and stir until well combined.
Use a spatula and fold in the cranberry sauce.
Fill each muffin tin about ⅔ full of batter.
Place in the oven and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out cleanly. Remove and allow to cool completely.
To make the glaze, place the powdered sugar in a small bowl and whisk in the orange juice (adding enough juice to make the glaze runny, but not too thin that it won’t stick to the tops of the muffins).
Turn the muffins over and dip the top of each muffin into the glaze.
