Notes
- Use a FoodSaver vacuum sealing system to preserve cranberries for easy future use.
- For gluten-free bread, use an all-purpose gluten-free flour mix, but avoid replacing only with almond or coconut flour.
- Substitute cane sugar with coconut sugar or other granulated sugars as preferred.
- Neutral oils or butter can replace coconut oil if desired.
