Orange Cranberry Bread
- 1 cup Walnuts, Roughly Chopped
- 2 cups All-purpose Flour
- 1 cup Granulated Sugar
- 1-1/2 teaspoon Baking Powder
- 1 teaspoon Baking Soda
- 1/2 teaspoons Salt
- 1 whole Egg, Beaten
- 2 Tablespoons Melted Butter
- 2 Tablespoons Hot Water
- 2 whole To 4 Whole Navel Oranges, Juiced And Zested (You Will Need 1/2 Cup Juice And The Zest From 1 Whole Orange)
- 1 teaspoon Pure Orange Extract
- 1 cup Fresh Or Frozen Cranberries
- Begin by preheating your oven to 325u0b0F.
- Next toast the walnuts in a dry frying pan for 5-8 minutes, then roughly chop them.
- In a large bowl, combine the dry ingredients (flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt). In another bowl, beat the egg, add the melted butter, hot water, zest from 1 orange, orange extract and 1/2 cup orange juice.
- Note: It took me about 1 1/2 navel oranges to get 1/2 cup of fresh juice. Buy 2-4 oranges to be on the safe side in case one is more juicy than the others.
- Mix the wet ingredients then add them to the dry ingredients and mix until moistened and combined (a wooden spoon or spatula will do fine).
- Fold in the walnuts and cranberries and mix until just combined. I left the cranberries whole, but you could chop them if you wanted.
- Pour the batter into a greased 9 x 5 bread pan and bake for 45-60 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean from the center. My oven only took about 45 minutes, so set your time for that and go from there.
- Let it cool completely before slicing and enjoy!
