Cranberry-orange bread is incredibly moist, dense, and filled with oranges and cranberries in every bite. It's even topped with a sweet orange polish that puts it on top. We think it's the best cranberry orange bread out there!
It took three years of trial and error to get the perfect cranberry orange bread recipe. Not that I have worked on it for three years in a row.
Three years of testing the recipe during the cranberry season.
This wet cranberry orange bread is sweet, slightly tart, and wonderfully dense.
Of course we're also biased toward crunchy apples and crunchy cherries too! We've even converted this baking recipe into cranberry orange cookies with streusel toppings, so it's okay to enjoy it for breakfast and dessert!
