With a wire whisk, mix together oil, milk, egg, sugar and lemon zest.
Stir together dry ingredients. Then gently stir into wet ingredients until moistened.
Add chopped pecans and chopped fresh or frozen cranberries. (I use a nut chopper to chop first the pecans, then the cranberries.).
Spoon batter into greased muffin pans. Bake at 400 degrees for 15-20 minutes, until an inserted wooden toothpick comes out clean. Remove from pans and serve. Makes about 10 regular size muffins.
