Easy and quick Cranberry Cake is buttery, with a tender crumb, and has a balanced sweetness thanks to the burst of tart cranberries infused in the center. It's effortless to prepare and serves as one of the best desserts for holidays or any occasion.

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 170°C (350°F). Grease a 9" x 5" (23 x 12 cm) loaf pan and set it aside.
- In a bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, salt, and baking powder. Set aside.
- In a separate bowl, beat unsalted butter with sugar using a hand mixer until creamy and smooth. Add the egg and almond extract, and continue beating until well incorporated. Gradually add the flour mixture, beating until just combined. Then, add sour cream and beat until the mixture is smooth. Gently fold in the frozen cranberries, reserving a handful for topping.
- Transfer the batter to the greased loaf pan. Smooth it out with a spatula and evenly sprinkle the reserved cranberries on top.
- Bake for 1 hour, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Allow it to cool slightly in the pan (about 15 to 20 minutes), then transfer it to a cooling rack to cool completely.
Notes
- Recipe Source: Delish
- Fresh or frozen cranberries work well for cranberry cake. If using frozen cranberries, there's no need to thaw them; you can use them directly from the freezer.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the cake tough. Mix until just combined once you add the dry ingredients to the wet ones.
- The cake is soft and tender when it's hot out of the oven. Let it cool in the pan for a while to prevent it from falling apart. Then, transfer it to a cooling rack to cool completely.
