Ingredients

Servings
  • ½ Cup unsalted butter Softened
  • Zest from 1 orange
  • ½ Cup granulated sugar
  • 1 Large egg
  • 1 Teaspoon vanilla
  • 2 Cups flour Divided
  • 1 Teaspoon salt
  • 2 Teaspoons baking powder
  • 2 Cups fresh cranberries
  • ½ Cup buttermilk
  • 1 Tablespoon coarse sugar for topping

Glaze

  • 1 Cup powdered sugar
  • 1 Tablespoon heavy cream
  • 2 Tablespoons fresh orange juice

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°. Grease an 8 or 9-inch square pan and set it aside. In a medium bowl cream together the butter, orange zest, and sugar. Add the egg and vanilla and beat until combined.
