Ingredients
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup buttermilk
- 1/4 cup sour cream
- Zest of 1 orange
- 1/2 cup oil
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups frozen cranberries or fresh
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
For the Glaze:
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons orange juice
- Zest of 1 orange
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Lightly grease with baking spray a 9"x5" bread pan. Add parchment paper, leaving a bit more on the sides to use as handles to lift the bread from the pan.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together sugar, buttermilk, sour cream, orange zest, oil, egg, and vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, stir together flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and whisk just until combined.
- In a small bowl, toss the frozen cranberries with a tablespoon of cornstarch to coat. Fold into the batter.
- Pour the bread batter into the prepared bread pan. Bake in the preheated oven for 50-55 minutes. A toothpick inserted into the center of the bread should come out clean.
- Allow the bread to cool for 10 minutes, then lift the bread up and place it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- To make the glaze, combine the powdered sugar, orange juice, zest, and vanilla extract in a small bowl. Mix until it is smooth with no lumps.
- Once the bread is cool, spread the glaze on top of the bread. Slice and serve.
