Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup fresh or frozen cranberries, coarsely chopped
  • 1/2 cup chopped almonds
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line a loaf pan with parchment paper.
  • Combine Dry Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  • Add Cranberries and Almonds: Gently fold in the chopped cranberries and almonds into the dry mixture until evenly distributed.
  • Prepare Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and then add buttermilk, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Mix well.
  • Combine Wet and Dry Mixtures: Combine the wet ingredients with the dry ones and stir until they are just mixed. Do not overmix; a few lumps are okay.
  • Bake: Transfer the batter to the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top. Bake for around 50-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center emerges clean.
  • Cool: Allow the Cranberry Almond Bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a cooling rack to cool completely.
