How to Chop Cranberries

Roly-poly fresh cranberries can be difficult to chop, so pulse them in a food processor rather than chopping them with a knife and cutting board.

Love this bread. I live near a cranberry bog and was able to get fresh berries to make this great bread!! I added 3/4 cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips because my family loves chocolate.

So so easy to make! I subbed 1 1/2 egg whites for the egg product and it turned out just fine. I used Craisins that were frozen so they were easier to chop. I would make this recipe again and again and again! In fact, after I made the first batch and tasted the batter, I decided to make another batch to take to work in the morning!

It tasted good but it was way dry. Maybe it was an operator error but I followed the directions. I will not waste time making it again when there are so many other sweet bread recipes out there.

Very easy to make and it's delicious. I make it for my Quilt Guild meetings quite frequently. Everyone loves it. I leave out the nuts and add chopped dry apricots on occasion as there are some people who are allergic to nuts.

Delicious! Everyone loved it. The hint of orange with the tangy cranberries and crunchy walnuts is perfect. Will definitely make again.

My husband loves this bread. I made it with "craisins" instead of fresh or frozen cranberries.

I love cranberries and dessert loafs (can't do without for breakfasts) and when I saw that this recipe, even with real sugar, was so low in calories, Ihad to give it a try. It turned out beautifully and tasted wonderful. I was skeptical of the orange juice, because I can't stand anything orange, but I found it gave it a great, tartness to the flavor. Will definately be a signature recipe for me:-)
