Cranberry Nut Bread

This is a wonderful sweet bread, easy and quick to make and simply delicious. The cranberries and nuts make it soft and moist. 
In my earlier post for Cranberry Scones, I already mentioned how those little red fruits are packed with Vitamin C, so this is the perfect sweet bread/cake for winter days. 


Ingredients:

• 2 c flour
• 1 c (brown) sugar
• 1 1/2 tsp. baking powder
• 1 tsp. salt
• 1/2 tsp. baking soda
• 3/4 c orange juice
• 1 tbsp. orange zest
• 2 tbsp. soft butter
• 1 egg, beaten
• 1 1/2 c fresh cranberries
• 1/2 c nuts, chopped

Preheat the oven to 350°F (160°C). 
Mix the dry ingredients. Stir in the orange juice, zest, butter and egg. 
Mix until blended. Stir in the cranberries and nuts. 
Pour the batter into a well greased loaf pan and bake for 55 minutes. 


Yes, it is that simple! Enjoy!
