📝 Preparation Steps
1
Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Zest and juice the orange. You'll need about ⅓ cup juice (divided) and a ¼ tsp zest for this recipe. Wash and slice the cranberries in half.

In a large bowl beat together the butter, sugar, and ¼ tsp orange zest with a hand mixer or stand mixer on high until the mixture is soft and fluffy (⏱️ 2-3 minutes). Add the egg and beat until the mixture is smooth and creamy (about ⏱️ 2 minutes).

Bake the cranberry orange bread for ⏱️ 60 minutes in the preheated 350ºF oven, or until it is browned on top and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean (a few crumbs are okay, just no wet batter).

Allow the bread to cool in the bread pan while you make the glaze. Combine the powdered sugar with just enough orange juice to create a thick glaze (about 1½ to 2 Tbsp). You can add a pinch of orange zest to the glaze, if desired.
