Preparation

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • Grease a loaf pan to prevent the bread from sticking.

Mixing

  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the dry ingredients: flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Whisk until evenly combined.
  • In another bowl, mix the wet ingredients: orange juice, vegetable oil, and eggs.
  • Pour the wet mixture into the bowl with the dry ingredients and mix gently until just combined.
  • Fold in the fresh cranberries and the orange zest.

Baking

  • Transfer the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top.
  • Bake for 60-70 minutes, checking for doneness by inserting a toothpick in the center.
  • Once done, cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.

Serving

  • Slice the bread once completely cool and enjoy it plain or with butter or cream cheese.
