Cranberry bread is a delightful alternative to muffins this time of year. It's cranberry season so there is no better time to make this bread.
Make an extra loaf or two for your freezer. One loaf just won't be enough. The combination of sweet and tart flavors makes this a favorite of mine. The addition of orange and nuts makes the aroma divine while adding a healthy twist. Each slice of this cranberry bread has 228 calories.
This cranberry bread recipe is a tradition in my family. This recipe comes to you via my mom who always had a platter of various quick breads ready for us for holiday breakfasts. This is a festive way to keep the family satisfied on those mornings when you may be too busy for a big breakfast. Make a loaf or two now and pop them in the freezer for Christmas morning. Yum!
This cranberry bread really is quick to make. You can make this recipe entirely by hand, without the assistance of any electric kitchen gadgets. A pastry blender makes the process of cutting in the vegetable shortening a breeze.

I use Crisco shortening in this bread. My mother used it so I use it.
Don't chop your cranberries too finely. a coarse chop is good enough.
Use the juice from the orange and add extra orange juice as necessary.
The technique is simple as well. Just combine the dry ingredients, add the wet ingredients all at once and fold in the nuts and berries.

You can make loaves of cranberry bread in advance. Cranberry bread freezes very well. Cool your loaves completely, wrap them in plastic wrap, and then place them in a plastic freezer bag for up to three months.
