Ingredients
for the bread:
- 1 cup sugar
- zest of one medium orange
- 1 1/2 cups flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup fresh cranberries sliced in half
- 3/4 cup buttermilk
- 1/2 cup oil
- 2 eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla
- 2 tablespoons fresh orange juice
for the glaze:
- 2 tablespoons fresh orange juice
- 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
- zest of one medium orange
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350. Spray a bread pan with cooking spray, then line with parchment, overlapping the pan on two sides.
- Add the sugar and orange zest to a large bowl. Rub the zest into the sugar using your fingers, until fragrant. Whisk in the flour, baking powder, and salt. Toss the cranberries with the flour mixture to coat.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, oil, vanilla, eggs and orange juice. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, and mix until just combined.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Bake 60-75 minutes, or until golden brown on top and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cool 10-15 minutes.
- To make the glaze, whisk all glaze ingredients together. Drizzle over the slightly warm bread, and allow to cool before serving.
