Cranberry Walnut Bread Recipe With Yeast
Cranberry walnut bread is an easy artisan bread that can be made at home with just 6 ingredients. The main ingredients are bread flour, water, salt, yeast, dried cranberries, and chopped walnuts.
Bread flour has more gluten and works best to make bread. However, if you are out of bread flour, you can also use all-purpose flour. I use the King Arthur brand of bread flour and all-purpose flour and use it interchangeably to make a variety of bread without much difference between the two.
Instant yeast or bread machine yeast works best to make dough in the bread machine. Check out this post to read more on which yeast to use in a bread machine.

Optionally, to speed up the process, you can warm the oven for 5 minutes and then allow the dough to rise inside it for about 30-40 minutes. To bake the walnut cranberry bread in the Dutch oven, preheat the oven to 450 °F with the rack at the middle level.

Finally bake the bread in the Dutch oven without the lid for about 20 minutes. The bread will have a nice golden color. Place it on a cooling rack and allow it to cool down completely before slicing it.

I have Cuisinart CBK-100 andCBK-200 bread makers, and cranberry orange bread turns out wonderfully in both. No matter the brand and model you own, you should be able to successfully use it to make quick breads like this.
STEP 1: Add all ingredients to the bread pan in the order listed. For non-Cuisinart bread makers, check your manual for the correct order to add ingredients (this is usually liquids first and dry ingredients last but it's always best to check).

STEP 2: Select the quick bread setting. Choose the 1.5 lb loaf and select your preferred crust color. After 5 minutes of mixing, use a spatula to mix in any ingredients that have stuck to the sides or bottom of the bread pan.
STEP 3: When the button chimes that it's ready to start baking, remove the kneading paddle (if you miss this part, it can be removed after baking). Give the batter a good, final mix to ensure everything is incorporated evenly.
STEP 4: Once the bake cycle has finished, allow to cool in the bread pan for 10-20 minutes. Then unplug the machine and remove the pan using oven mitts. Turn the pan on it's side and carefully ease out the banana bread with the help of a spatula or butter knife if needed. Cool completely on a wire rack before slicing. If you haven't removed the kneading paddle, carefully pull it out of the bottom prior to slicing.

The internal temperature should be 190 degrees Fahrenheit.
Fresh fruity quick breads don't keep long. Store them in a cool place in a sealed bag or container for up to 3 days at room temperature. This bread can be kept in the fridge for about 7 days or stored in the freezer for up to 6 months in airtight plastic freezer bags. Slice the bread into pieces before freezing for quick grab and go snacks. Defrost overnight in the fridge, for a few hours on the counter or do a quick defrost in the microwave.
