Pumpkin Cranberry Bread Recipe

This Pumpkin Cranberry Bread Recipe bakes up moist and so flavorful plus it’s an easy recipe to make. Perfect quick bread to celebrate all of the Fall flavors.

It’s really starting to feel like FALL here in the Middle Georgia area and I, for one, am super excited.  I can open my windows, sit outside without sweating buckets, and enjoy ALL the Fall foods, like this delicious Pumpkin Cranberry Bread.  

That being said, it is also #PumpkinWeek in the food blogger world and I am joining 25 other blogger friends to bring you a week long event with PUMPKIN recipes.  We’re so excited and have been waiting all year for this.  Be sure to check out the recipes for each day at the end of this post, and follow #pumpkinweek on social media for more yumminess.  

Now, back to this pumpkin bread with cranberries recipe.  I love baking with pumpkin as it keeps recipes moist and flavorful.  This pumpkin recipe has all your fall spices like cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves.  While you can use fresh cranberries, I opted for dried cranberries as that is what I had in the pantry.  

How to make Pumpkin Cranberry Bread

As I like to do with all my baking recipes, I gather the items needed before I start making the recipe.  I like to combine my dry ingredients first and then set them aside.  Add in the dried cranberries so they are coated with the flour mixture.  I did not take a picture of that but adding them now helps the fruit to be evenly distributed in the batter and not sink to the bottom. If you are using fresh cranberries (you will use double the amount listed in the recipe), add them once your batter is combined so you don’t crush the fruit.

 

Then in a large bowl, combine your wet ingredients.  

 

No need for a stand or electric mixer for this recipe.  A wooden spoon works well.  Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet and mix until just combined.  As stated above this would be the time to add fresh cranberries if you are using them in place of the dried.  

Pour batter into prepared baking pan and top with additional cranberries, if desired.  Bake for 55-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. 

Remove from oven and allow to cool in pan for five minutes and then remove to a cooling rack to cool completely before slicing.
