Cranberry Nut Bread

CRANBERRY NUT BREAD                   (from Suzanne Wray)

1 Cup Cranberries coarsely ground

1 ¼ Cup Sugar

3 Cups Flour

4 ½ tsp Baking powder

1 tsp Salt

3 TBS grated orange rind (I put in the juice instead)

1 Cup Milk

3 TBS Melted Butter

1 Egg

½ Cup Chopped Pecans or Walnuts

Mix berries & ¼ cup Sugar & Orange juice – set aside.

Sift 1 cup sugar with flour, baking powder and salt.  Blend in the milk and butter, the slightly beaten egg and nuts.  Fold in berries mixture and pour into a greased 9 x 5 x 2 ¾ inch loaf pan.

Bake 1 hour at 35 degrees

When done, wait 10 minutes, then turn and cool on rack.  Wrap in aluminum foil and store (easier to slice the 2^nd day).  Makes one loaf.

I have also made it in a bundt pan.
