Cranberry Nut Bread

Recipe View Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and lightly flour a 9x5-inch loaf pan. (5 minutes)

Recipe View In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and baking soda. Add the chopped cranberries and walnuts, tossing to coat them evenly with the flour mixture. This helps prevent them from sinking to the bottom of the loaf. (10 minutes)

Recipe View In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the orange juice, egg, vegetable oil, and orange zest until well combined. (2 minutes)

Recipe View Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few streaks of flour are okay. Overmixing can lead to a tough bread. (3 minutes)

Recipe View Spoon the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it evenly. (1 minute)

Recipe View Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with just a few moist crumbs attached. (55 minutes)

Recipe View Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely. This prevents the bread from becoming soggy. (10 minutes)
