Cranberry Nut Bread II recipe

1 servings

Ingredients:

2 cups sifted all-purpose flour

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1 cup white sugar

1 orange, juiced and zested

2 tablespoons butter, melted

1 egg, beaten

1 cup chopped walnuts

1 cup cranberries, quartered

1 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar

3 tablespoons butter, softened

1 tablespoon orange juice

1 tablespoon milk

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Grease and flour a loaf pan.

In a large bowl, combine flour, salt, baking powder, baking soda, and sugar.

In a 1-cup (or larger) measuring cup combine juice and zest of the orange, butter and enough boiling water to reach 3/4 cup.

Stir into flour mixture.

Fold in egg, walnuts and cranberries.

Pour batter into prepared pan.

Bake in preheated oven for 1 hour, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean.

Cool loaf in the pan for 5 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.

To make the icing combine confectioners' sugar, butter, orange juice and milk; add more milk if necessary so that the icing is thin and slightly runny.

Drizzle over bread; allow icing to set before slicing.
