So anyhow, back to my loaf bread. I seem to be on a loaf bread kick right now. I bought some fresh cranberries and wanted to do something different besides my Cranberry bar recipe. http://aprilshomecooking.blogspot.com/2008/11/cranberry-bars.html (These are really good)
So I decided on a range Cranberry Loaf. I will admit the cranberries are a little tart for me so next time I think I will chop them a little before adding them to the flour, I just wanted those whole cranberries in the loaf so it would look pretty.
Give it a try and let me know what you think.
2 cups flour

1/2 t baking soda
1/2 t salt
zest of two large oranges
1 1/2 cups cranberries
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
1/4 c room temperature butter
1 cup sugar
1 egg
3/4 cup orange juice (juice of the two large oranges)
Preheat oven to 350. Spray a loaf pan and set aside.
Whisk together our, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Stir in orange zest, cranberries and nuts, set aside.
Cream, butter, sugar, and egg together until smooth. Mix in Orange juice.Stir in four mixture just until moistened. Pour batter into prepared pan.
Bake for 1 hour or until skewer inserted in center comes out clean. Let sit in pan for about 15 minutes, then turn onto wire rack to cool.
