WHOLE CRANBERRY BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a bowl, sift flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together. Add walnuts and cranberries.
• In another bowl, combine orange juice, butter, and egg. Add to the dry ingredients, mixing well. Pour into pan.
• Bake for 1 hour. Cool for 15 minutes before removing it from the pan. It's better if prepared a day or so before serving.

WHOLE WHEAT CRANBERRY BREAD

Steps:

• In a small cup, add yeast, milk, butter and sugar, and whisk to combine. Let it sit for 5 minutes to activate the yeast.
• In a large mixing bowl, whisk to combine all purpose flour, whole wheat flour, 1/3 cup oats, cranberries, flaxseeds, sesame seeds and salt.
• Pour in the yeast mixture, and stir with a silicone spatula to combine until it forms a shaggy dough, scraping down the sides of the bowl (there should be no dry flour particles visible).
• Transfer the dough onto a clean surface and knead for 5 minutes until it turns into a smooth dough ball. Because of the medium hydration (60% flour to liquid ratio) and high fat content (butter and milk), the dough is much softer and is easy to knead into a smooth ball.
• Drizzle and spread a little bit of oil over the dough with your hands to help prevent it from drying out. Cover the bowl with plastic cling wrap and let it sit at room temperature for up to 2 hours or until doubled in size.
• Transfer the dough onto a lightly oiled surface. Flatten the dough into 9x5-inch rectangle and roll it into a log. Pinch the edges together to seal.
• Transfer the rolled dough into a 9x5 loaf pan and press it down with your palm to spread cover the entire pan. This also helps distribute air bubbles evenly in dough when it rises. Set it aside to rise until the loaf almost rises to the rim of the pan, about 1-1.5 hours.
• Preheat the oven to 400F.
• Gently brush egg wash over the top crust (be gentle with brushing since the loaf is filled with air bubbles). Sprinkle the top with the remaining oats and poppy seeds.
• Bake for 40 minutes until the top turns golden brown.
• Allow loaf to cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then remove out of the pan and cool completely on a wire cooling rack before slicing, about 1 hour.

WHOLE WHEAT CRANBERRY ORANGE QUICK BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and butter a 9 X 5 X 3 inch loaf pan.
• Coarsely chop the cranberries in the bowl of a food processor, about four pulses. Transfer berries to a small bowl and stir in the honey. Let honey-berry mixture steep at least 1 hour, or until the mixture exudes a liquid.
• Meanwhile, peel the zest from both oranges and mince it finely, then set aside. Peel the white pith from both oranges and discard. Add the oranges to the food processor and process for three or four pulses, then transfer to the cranberry-honey mixture.
• Add the egg to the food processor and process until it is well beaten, then add the cooled butter and process until combined.
• Scrape the egg mixture into the cranberry mixture.
• In a large mixing bowl, combine the dry ingredients (flour through walnuts, plus the prepared orange zest). Add the wet (cranberry) mixture to the dry ingredients and combine. Spoon and scrape the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 50 to 60 minutes, or until a cake tester inserted into the center comes out clean.
• Cool, in the pan, on a wire rack for 15 minutes, then turn out onto the rack and let the loaf cool completely. Wrap in aluminum foil and eat the following day for best flavor.
