Ingredients
Cranberry Walnut Bread
- 2/3 cup unsweetened applesauce
- 1/3 cup orange juice
- 1 cup dark brown sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 ½ teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon orange zest
- 2 cups whole wheat pastry flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 1/3 cup fresh cranberries chopped and tossed in 1 tablespoon whole wheat pastry flour
- 2/3 cup walnuts
Streusel Topping
- 2 tablespoons vanilla sugar
- 4 tablespoons dark brown sugar
- 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter melted
- 1 ½ teaspoons orange zest
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F. Spray a loaf pan with nonstick cooking spray. (I used a 9" x 5" regular-sized pan and three mini pans.)
- Make the bread batter: In a large bowl, whisk the applesauce, orange juice and brown sugar together until smooth.
- Add the egg, vanilla and orange zest to the wet ingredients, whisking until incorporated.
- In a medium-sized bowl, combine the whole wheat pastry flour, baking powder and salt. Stir until combined.
- Slowly, measure the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, whisking until just combined.
- Add the cranberries and walnuts to the batter, and fold until incorporated.
- Pour the bread batter into the prepared baking pans, and set aside.
- Make the streusel topping: In a bowl, combine the sugars, flour and orange zest. Stir until combined. Pour the butter on top, and stir until the mixture has come together.
- Sprinkle the streusel topping on top of the bread batter in the prepared pans evenly until distributed.
- Bake for 45 - 60 minutes, or until the streusel topping is golden brown and the bread has cooked through. (It took 45 minutes for my mini loaf pans to cook through and 60 for the regular-sized bread pan.)
- Cool on a cooling rack, then slice and enjoy slightly warm!
