Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.5 cups unsalted butter, melted and cooled
- 0.75 cups milk
- 2 pieces large eggs
- 1 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon orange zest
- 1 cup fresh or frozen cranberries, chopped
- 1 cup fresh raspberries
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.
In a medium bowl, whisk the melted butter, milk, eggs, vanilla extract, and orange zest until combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can make the bread dense.
Fold in the chopped cranberries and fresh raspberries gently with a spatula. Ensure the fruit is evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread it evenly using the back of a spoon or spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 55–60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
If desired, sprinkle powdered sugar over the top for a decorative and sweet finish before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
