How to Make Cranberry Orange Quick Bread
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x5 inch loaf pan.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, cream together the butter and sugars until light and fluffy.
- Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the orange zest and vanilla.
- In a small bowl, combine the cranberries, orange juice, and pecans (if using).
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the cranberry mixture, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
- Pour batter into the prepared loaf pan and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
- While the bread is cooling, prepare the glaze: Whisk together the powdered sugar, orange juice, and vanilla until smooth. Adjust consistency with additional orange juice if needed.
- Once the bread is completely cool, drizzle the glaze over the top.
