Cranberry Orange Bread!



* I would have a picture of what this looked like on the inside had it been around for me to do so. This was eaten so fast I think I got one piece. Sooo good!*

2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder

  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda

  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

  • 1 tablespoon grated orange zest

  • 1 1/2 cups fresh cranberries ( I used frozen)

  • 1/2 cup pecans, coarsely chopped

  • 1/4 cup butter, softened

  • 1 cup white sugar

  • 1 egg

  • 3/4 cup orange juice

  • Directions

    1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease and flour a 9x5 inch loaf pan. Whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Stir in orange zest, cranberries, and pecans. Set aside.
    2. In a large bowl, cream together butter, sugar, and egg until smooth. Stir in orange juice. Beat in flour mixture until just moistened. Pour into prepared pan.
    3. Bake for 1 hour in the preheated oven, or until the bread springs back when lightly touched. Let stand 10 minutes, take out & finish cooling on wire wrack.
