    Bake 45 to 50 minutes or until toothpick inserted in centre comes out clean. Cool 15 minutes. Loosen sides of loaf from pan; remove from pan and place top side up on wire rack. Cool completely, about 2 hours, before slicing. Wrap tightly and store at room temperature up to 4 days, or refrigerate up to 10 days.

Expert Tips

  • Tip 1
    Tip: When grating orange peel, be sure to grate only the orange part of the skin. The white part, or pith, is very bitter.
  • Tip 2
    Tip: Fresh cranberries are available only during the fall and early winter. Why not buy a few extra bags to keep in your freezer? You can freeze them for up to a year.
  • Tip 3
    Tip: To avoid ledges on the edges of your quick bread, grease only the bottom of the baking pan. A fully greased pan prevents the bread from forming a nicely rounded top.
  • Tip 4
    Tip: Go nuts! Walnuts, pecans and cashews are perfect for this quick bread. Pick your favourite.
  • Tip 5
    Tip: If the loaf sticks to the pan, press gently on the sides of the loaf with a knife or metal spatula to loosen.
