Directions
Betsy’s Lemon-Cranberry Bread,Found in a TOH magazine and clipped out to try! Boy was I ever glad I did. A lemony loaf of bread with the extra zip of dried cranberries. I’ve made this as a regular sized loaf and also in mini loaf sizes for gifts. I have also used walnuts and almonds in this bread and actually prefer the almonds – but use whatever nut you love. The addition of the lemon glaze just takes this bread over the top. *** Edited 11/19/09 – This recipe makes TWO 9x5x3″ pans instead of one. Sorry for my error! If you want just one loaf just halve the recipe and it will work perfectly! ***,Decided to make muffins instead. Followed another reviewers suggestion and used 1 cup of fresh cranberries (chopped after measuring). Drizzled with lemon glaze and added a sprinkling of sugared zest to the tops. Very pretty and tasty.,Tried this recipe with dried blueberries instead of dried cranberries it turned out great! I have tried fresh blueberry in recipes and the bread breaks up so much, with the dried blueberry it stayed together better. I like lemon and blueberry together and orange and cranberry together
