For a richer flavor, try using melted butter instead of softened butter.
Add a handful of chopped walnuts or pecans for a nutty crunch.
If using frozen cranberries, there is no need to thaw. Fold them in while still frozen. This will prevent them from bleeding into the batter too much.
For a festive twist, try adding a pinch of cardamom to the dry ingredients.
