Cranberry Orange Bread (Easy Recipe)

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175°C) and grease a loaf pan with cooking spray. Line with parchment (optional) and set aside.

Step 2

Mix the flour with the baking soda, half of the sugar, salt, and baking powder.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, blend the soft butter with the sugar until it looks like a smooth paste. Then mix the egg into the paste until smooth.

Step 4

Gently stir the sugar paste into the dry mixture.

Step 5

Add the orange zest and orange juice, and mix until almost fully combined.

Step 6

Slowly fold in the frozen cranberries and walnuts until they’re evenly distributed throughout the batter.

Step 7

Bake for around 45-50 minutes, until the bread is golden brown on the top. Test for doneness, then bake in 5-minute intervals until done. Insert a toothpick into the center to test for doneness - it should come out clean or with just a few crumbs.

Step 8

Cool the loaf in the pan for 5-10 minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack to cool. Slice, serve, and enjoy!
