Quick Breads
Cranberry-Orange Bread
Apples make this bread very moist – for a breakfast treat, slice and toast.
Makes 1 loaf (16 servings)
Preparation: 10–15 minutes, plus 2 hours baking and cooling
cooking spray
1½ cups (375 ml) unbleached, all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons (10 ml) baking powder
¼ teaspoon (1 ml) salt
1 cup (250 ml) pecan halves
4 strips orange zest
¾ cup (175 ml) granulated sugar
Preheat oven to 350˚F (180°C). Lightly spray a 9 x 5-inch (23 x 13 cm) loaf pan with cooking spray. In
a small bowl combine flour, baking powder and salt. Reserve. Insert metal blade and pulse to coarsely
chop pecans, about 6 times. Reserve.
Process orange zest and sugar until zest is finely chopped, about 45 seconds. Add apples, eggs and
vanilla; process until combined, about 15 to 20 seconds. With machine running, add butter and but-
termilk through the small feed tube. Process until combined, about 10 to 15 seconds. Add cranberries,
pecans and dry ingredients. Pulse until flour is just mixed in, about 5 to 6 times. Do not overprocess.
Transfer batter to prepared pan. Bake until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes
out clean, about 60 to 65 minutes. Cool in pan on a wire rack. Remove from pan and cool completely.
For best results, wrap in plastic wrap and allow to rest for 24 hours before slicing.
