Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350ðF (175ðC). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan with margarine or non-stick spray.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  3. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the melted margarine, beaten egg, orange zest, and cranberry juice until smooth.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Do not overmix; the batter should be lumpy.
  5. Fold in the raisins and fresh pulped cranberries carefully to distribute them evenly throughout the batter.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
  7. Bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and the top is lightly browned.
  8. Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
