Cranberry Orange Bread
Ingredients:
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tsp baking powder
• ½ tsp baking soda
• ½ tsp salt
• ¾ cup granulated sugar
• ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
• 2 large eggs
• ½ cup fresh orange juice
• 1 tbsp orange zest
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1½ cups fresh or frozen cranberries
• ½ cup chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)
Method:
1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line a 9×5-inch loaf pan with parchment paper.
2. In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar. In another bowl, whisk the melted butter, eggs, orange juice, orange zest, and vanilla.
3. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Gently fold in the cranberries and nuts if using.
4. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and bake for 50–60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Cool for 10–15 minutes before removing from the pan, then slice and serve. ![]()
