I was at the Superstore and came across oranges and then some cranberries.....so naturally orange cranberry bread came to mind. I do not normally make muffins or quick breads because they
NEVER turn out for me. They are always rubbery and holey. But I am bound and determined to get over this little hurdle! lol I will practice until I get the darn things conquered!
This bread came out pretty good. I think I will actually try this one again.
- 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
- 1/4 cup margarine, softened
- 1 cup white sugar
- 1 egg
- 3/4 cup orange juice
Whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Stir in orange zest and cranberries.
In a large bowl, cream together margarine, sugar, and egg until smooth. Stir in orange juice. Beat in flour mixture until just moistened. Pour into prepared pan.
Bake for 1 hour in the 350 degree oven. After it cooled I drizzled it with a mix of icing sugar and orange juice.
