Categories : Breads Fruits

 

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

2 cups fresh cranberries

1/2 cup sugar

Grated zest of 1 orange plus

2 tablespoons orange juice

6 tablespoons butter

3/4 cup light brown sugar -- packed

2 eggs -- at room temperature

1 cup buttermilk

2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

1/8 teaspoon ground cloves

1 teaspoon baking soda

1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 cup pecans or walnuts -- finely chopped

Butter and flour for greasing pan

 

Makes 8 slices

 

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In a small saucepan, cook cranberries, sugar,

orange zest and juice over high heat, stirring frequently, until most

berries burst and sugar is dissolved, about 4 to 5 minutes.

 

In a large mixing bowl, cream butter and brown sugar until light and

fluffy, then add eggs one at a time and beat until smooth. Add buttermilk.

In a separate bowl, combine flour, cloves, baking soda, baking powder and

salt and stir half into batter. Add cranberries and remaining flour and

then fold in nuts.

 

Butter and flour a medium-size (4-or 5-inch by 8 1/2-inch) loaf pan. Spoon

batter into pan and bake in the center of the oven until well-browned on

top and a toothpick inserted in center of the loaf comes out clean, 65 to

70 minutes. Cool in pan for 10 minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack to

cool completely. Slice and serve.
