Cranberry Walnut Bread
- 4 cups cranberries
- 2/3 cup fresh orange juice (about 2 large oranges) 1 1/2 cups low-fat buttermilk
- 2 eggs
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 2 cups whole wheat flour
- 2 cups all-purpose white flour
- 2 cups sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 2 1/2 teaspoons salt 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon cardamom
- 1 cup roughly chopped walnuts
- Topping:
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon cardamom
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Coat 6 mini or 2 regular size loaf pans with non-stick cooking spray.
- 2. Coarsely chop 1 1/2 cups of the cranberries by hand or in a food processor; set aside.
- 3. In a medium bowl, whisk together the orange juice, buttermilk and eggs. Whisk in the melted butter.
- 4. In a separate large bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon and cardamom. Stir with a fork until thoroughly mixed.
- 5. Add the liquid ingredients to the dry ingredients and gently fold together with a rubber spatula until just combined; do not over mix. Gently add the whole and chopped cranberries and walnuts. Mix just enough to distribute them throughout the batter.
- 6. Divide the batter evenly between the loaf pans. Prepare the topping by mixing the cinnamon, cardamom and sugar in a bowl; sprinkle over the top of the loaves.
- 7. Bake until a tester inserted in the center comes out clean - 30 to 35 minutes for mini loaves, about 45 to 50 minutes for standard loaves. Let cool on a wire rack.
