CRANBERRY-ORANGE QUICK BREAD



Cranberry-Orange Quick Bread image

This is my husband's very favorite quick bread I make, a great holiday gift, and is my most-requested at parties, especially around the holidays. It originally came from the Betty Crocker Cookbook, but I usually omit the nuts (although I love pecans with the cranberries) and have added a glaze onto it, which really seemed to give it that extra little zing. When I serve it for parties or brunches, I slice it, then cut the slices in half top to bottom; people seem satified with the smaller pieces (though they often go back for more!) and it serves more that way. I always try to keep a bag of cranberries in the freezer for just this recipe.

Provided by Lennie

Categories     Quick Breads

Time 1h10m

Yield 2 loaves, 20-24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

4 eggs
1 1/2 cups sugar
3/4 cup oil
2/3 cup orange juice
2 cups shredded unpeeled zucchini
3 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons grated orange rind
2 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon clove
1/2 cup chopped nuts (optional)
1 cup powdered sugar
2 -3 tablespoons orange juice

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Grease and flour bottoms only of two 8x4 or 9x5 loaf pans.
  • In large bowl, beat eggs until thick and lemon-coloured; gradually beat in sugar.
  • Add oil, orange juice and zucchini.
  • Stir in remaining bread ingredients; mix well.
  • Pour batter into prepared pans.
  • Bake at 350°F degrees for 45-55 minutes or until cake tester inserted in centre comes out clean.

  • In small bowl, blend glaze ingredients; spread over warm loaves.
  • Cool completely on wire rack.
  • Wrap tightly and store in refrigerator.

Tips:

  • Use fresh oranges for the best flavor. If you can, use organic oranges to avoid pesticides and waxes.
  • Zest the oranges before juicing them. This will release the flavorful oils from the peel.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in a tough, dense bread.
  • Bake the bread until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. If the toothpick comes out with wet batter, the bread needs to bake longer.
  • Let the bread cool completely before slicing and serving. This will help the bread to set and develop its full flavor.

Conclusion:

Orange bread is a delicious and versatile quick bread that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dessert. It's also a great way to use up leftover oranges. With so many different recipes to choose from, there's sure to be an orange bread recipe that everyone will love.
