Directions
Almond Cranberry Bread, From Ocean Spray flyer It has been a many years since I’ve made this bread but my notes say it is yummy! My notes also say I added a 1/4 cup of chopped almonds to the batter and then used another 1/4 cup of sliced/slivered almonds for the topping So I’ve adjusted the original to include this but feel free to leave the chopped almonds out of the batter itself **Updated 12/7/11 – I’ve adjusted the bake time for this bread The original times were definitely too long for this quick bread **, I made this bread for 7 people on my Christmas list this year used 1 cup milk that I warmed up a bit in the microwave and let my egg come to room temp I added a total of 3/4 sliced almonds to the batter and total of 2 cups of frozen cranberries and I added 3 t almond extract instead of the 2 t in the recipe The batter is thick when stirring in the frozen cranberries but it was fine I did bake it for the full 30 mins when lowering the oven temp to 350 degrees Everyone loved this bread and it is great toasted with butter in the morning with coffee or tea I will make them early next year and freeze them Then I will mail them out I did not have an issue with a crumbly texture , We love cranberry bread and I was really pleased with this recipe due to the low sugar content I, too, had a problem with the texture — not sure if the amount of flour should be reduced or the milk increased? I added an extra 1/4 cup milk The bread was very tasty; however, it was not as moist as I expected — it was more crumbly in texture But, as far as the taste, we enjoyed this quick bread
