Healthy Cranberry Bread

! Yielding six miniature loaves (or one traditional large loaf) it’s great for that “one for you, one for me” mentality. Actually, five to gift and one to enjoy at home!

I love using cranberries in our cooking and baking! Don’t skip Cranberry Salsa, Cranberry Sauce with Port, this Cranberry Cheeseball, and Cranberry Orange Bread.

It’s especially delicious for the holidays – aka cranberry season! This bread is so moist it doesn’t need anything, but who can resist smothering it in a little butter? Not me!

It’s so easy! No yeast, no fuss! This Cranberry Bread Recipe comes out perfectly every single time! In fact, it’s a reader favorite!

If a recipe calls for a cup of cranberries (either fresh or frozen), use just ¾ cup of sweetened dried cranberries. They are smaller and pack a bigger punch.

Glazed Cranberry Orange Bread

Fresh cranberries do tend to float in your quick bread dough, but this dough is dense enough that it holds the chopped fresh cranberries throughout.

Crazy

I always stock up on white ceramic loaf pans during the holidays when they’re 50% off, making them less than $1 a piece at Michael’s. You can also find a set of disposable paper loaf pans here if you’re in a pinch.

Easy One Bowl Cranberry Orange Loaf

If you enjoy baking with cranberries, you may also like my Homemade Cranberry Sauce and use it to make Christmas Wreath Pavlova.

One of my first and favorite things to bake as soon as cranberries show up in the store is this sweet bread. It's quick, easy and so so delicious! I love a slice with my afternoon tea or coffee. It's great to pack in lunchboxes, wrap with festive ribbon and gift give for the holidays or bake a couple of loaves for friends. This Cranberry Bread is sweet, the crumb is soft and can be jazzed up with orange zest, pecans or chocolate chunks. One loaf is never enough as this treat disappears quickly!

You can keep cranberry bread at room temperature for up to 2 days. It will last longer (up to 1 week) in the fridge, wrapped in saran wrap or placed in a freezer-safe bag.

Orange Cranberry Nut Bread

You can freeze un-glazed bread for up to 3 months. Wrap completely cooled bread in saran wrap, then place in a freezer bag. Squeeze out as much air as possible. Place in the freezer.

Any sweet quick bread, or muffins for that matter, that sink in the middle is undercooked and had too much liquid added in the recipe. I've made this bread many many times over the years and it never sunk in the middle. It's a fail-proof recipe! If you have bananas on your hand, you need to try my One-Bowl Banana Bread recipe as well!
