    Here's the one-and-only Classic Cranberry Nut Bread from Ocean Spray Cranberries. The perky, sassy red berries are enhanced with orange juice and zest and your favorite nut meats in this attractive and delicious loaf. Frozen or fresh cranberries do the job. And with only 2 tablespoons of added fat per loaf, it shouldn't be a diet deal-breaker!

    Ingredients

    • 2 cups flour
    • 1 cup sugar
    • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
    • 1 teaspoon salt
    • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
    • 3/4 cup orange juice
    • 1 tablespoon grated orange peel
    • 2 tablespoons shortening (I used butter)
    • 1 egg, well beaten
    • 1 1/2 cups Ocean Spray Fresh or Frozen Cranberries
    • 1/2 cup chopped nuts

    Directions

    1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9 x 5-inch loaf pan. Rinse, drain and pat cranberries dry; then coarsely chop and set aside.
    2. Mix together flour, sugar, baking powder, salt and baking soda in a medium mixing bowl. Stir in orange juice, orange peel, shortening and egg. Mix until well blended. Stir in prepared cranberries and nuts. Spread evenly in loaf pan.
    3. Bake for 55 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool on a rack for 15 minutes. Remove from pan and then cool completely. Wrap and store (overnight if possible makes for better slicing.without crumbling.)
    4. Makes 1 loaf (16 slices.)
