How to Make Orange Cranberry Squares
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8x8 inch baking pan with cooking spray.
- In a large bowl, cream together ½ cup packed brown sugar, ¼ cup granulated sugar, 1 tablespoon orange zest, ¼ cup orange juice, ¼ cup vegetable oil, 1 large egg, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract using a whisk or electric mixer until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 cup dried cranberries, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing with a wooden spoon or spatula until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly.
- In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons granulated sugar and ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon.
- Sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture evenly over the batter.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the squares cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares and serving.
