Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
  2. Combine the dry ingredients and mix well.
  3. Add the milk and egg to the dry mixture. Stir until everything is just moist and add the butter. Stir until combined, but do not over-mix. Fold in the cranberries and nuts.
  4. For crumble topping, combine all the ingredients. Work the mixture with your hands, squeezing and stirring until it’s all moist and crumbly.
  5. Grease two 8x4 loaf pans. Pour batter evenly between two pans. Sprinkle the crumble topping on each loaf.
  6. Bake for 35-45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  7. Cool in the pan 10 minutes. Remove and cool on a rack. Cut each loaf into 8 slices.

Notes

  • Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing will eliminate the air pockets that quick bread needs in order to rise properly.
  • For extra crunchy nuts with a more intense flavor, toast them in a small pan until fragrant and cool before adding.
  • Check the bread early to ensure it doesn't overcook.
  • Check for doneness by inserting a toothpick in the center of the loaf. If it comes out clean the bread is done.
  • Cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Remove and place on a cooling rack to cool completely. 
  • Nutrition information is for 1 slice.
