How to Make Cranberry Orange Bread:
2
Prep: Preheat oven to 350˚F. Butter a 6 cup (8 1/2 by 4 1/2 bread loaf pan)* then dust with flour, tapping out the excess flour.
3
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together: flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
baking powder1 tsp
4
In a measuring cup, combine together milk, zest of 1 orange (Reserve 1 tsp zest for the glaze), and orange juice. Set aside.
5
In a large mixing bowl, cream together butter and granulated sugar on medium/high speed (⏱️ 2-3 minutes on high speed). It won’t be smooth, just combined. Beat in 2 large eggs, mixing until well incorporated.

Add flour mixture in 2 parts, alternating with the milk mixture and mixing on medium/low speed just until incorporated with each addition. Scrape the sides of the bowl with a spatula as needed.
7
Toss cranberries with 1/2 Tbsp flour then fold them into the batter just until incorporated. Spread the batter into your prepared pan and bake for ⏱️ 45-50 min at 350˚F until golden on top and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cool in pan ⏱️ 10-15 minutes then run a knife around the edges and transfer the loaf to a wire rack to cool completely before glazing.

To Make the Glaze:

In a separate bowl, stir together powdered sugar, orange juice and reserved teaspoon of zest. Stir until smooth. It should have a drizzling consistency. Add more orange juice to thin it out or powdered sugar to make it thicker.
