Cranberry Bread Recipe

Cranberry Bread

This cranberry bread recipe is made with fresh cranberries, orange juice, and chopped nuts. Sweet-tart cranberries make a delicious quick bread to serve for breakfast or as part of a special holiday brunch menu.

Serve warm or cold with a pat of butter or softened cream cheese spread on top. This cranberry bread is full of flavor because of the fresh orange juice and rind.

Prep Time: 15 minutes

Bake Time: 1 hour

Ingredient List:

juice and grated rind of 1 medium orange
2 Tablespoons shortening
boiling water
1 egg, beaten
2 cups flour
1 cup sugar
1-1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1-1/2 cups fresh or thawed frozen cranberries, coarsely chopped
1/2 cup chopped nuts

Kitchen Equipment Needed

1 medium mixing bowl

1 large mixing bowl

1 8" x 4" x 3" loaf pan, greased and floured

Step 1: In a measuring cup, place the juice of 1 orange and its grated rind. Add 2 Tablespoons of shortening and enough boiling water to make 3/4 cup. Pour into a medium mixing bowl.

Step 2: Whisk one egg, slightly beaten into the orange juice mixture.

Step 3: In a separate large mixing bowl, measure the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
