Cranberry Nut Bread

Cranberry Nut Bread is a delicious quick bread made with dried cranberries, apple cider and chopped walnuts. 

We love quick breads; especially when you're looking for something a little sweet, but not overly so. Something that you can grab with a quick cup of coffee to nibble on either for breakfast or afternoon snack. This Cranberry Nut Bread was delicious and makes a tasty treat around the holidays. 

Most of the time I make banana or zucchini bread, but wanted to try a new version with cranberries since it would go perfectly for Thanksgiving or Christmas. My family loved this bread so I'll definitely be making it again.

• All Purpose Flour

How do you make Cranberry Nut Bread?

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F; t hen spray the loaf pan with cooking spray. 
2. Add the flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt to the small mixing bowl; mix well. 
3. Add the oil, milk, cider, sugar, egg and vanilla extract to the larger mixing bowl; then blend until smooth with the mixer or a whisk. Add the dry mixture to the wet mixture and fold by hand to combine.

I recommend leaving the bread whole and only slicing the pieces needed so the bread doesn't dry out.
