For our New Year's brunch this year, I wanted to serve something sweet to go with Biscuits and Gravy Casserole and Caramelized Ham and Cheese Buns. I searched my Pinterest boards and found this really delicious cranberry orange bread.

Cranberry Orange Bread
Ingredients
2 cups flour
½ cup sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
grated zest of 1 large orange
⅔ cup fresh orange juice
2 eggs, lightly beaten
⅓ cup vegetable oil
1¼ cups fresh cranberries
½ cup nuts, chopped
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Line a 9x5-inch loaf pan with
parchment paper and spray with nonstick cooking spray.
Sift the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt together in a
large bowl. Stir in the orange zest. Make a well in the center and add the
orange juice, eggs and vegetable oil. Stir gently, just until almost combined.
Fold in the cranberries and nuts, making sure you don’t over mix the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Bake in the
preheated oven until a tester inserted in the center comes out clean, about 45
minutes.
Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then remove to
a cooling rack to cool completely.
