Cranberry Nut Bread
"One of the most festive loafs you can make during the holidays is this cranberry nut bread,brightly speckled with day glow fuchsia cranberries, orange zest, and walnuts. It’s a great loaf for late fall, early winter as cranberries, oranges, and walnuts are all in season.Buy an orange and squeeze it fresh to get the best juice for this recipe (grate the peel first). You can easily prep the cranberries by pulsing them a few times in the food processor, or manually cut them in half first, then do a rough chop. The result is a tangy, slightly sweet bread with occasional explosions of cranberry tartness, mellowed with walnuts. Updated from the recipe archive, first posted 2006..."
