- 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
- 3 large eggs
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- Zest of 1 orange
- 1 cup dried cranberries
Instructions
- Preheat Your Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a loaf pan with nonstick spray or line it with parchment paper.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and orange zest until well combined.
- Combine Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, beat the eggs, melted butter, and sour cream together until smooth and creamy.
- Combine Mixtures: Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients. Gently fold them together until just combined. Add in the dried cranberries during this stage.
- Bake It Up: Transfer the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread it evenly. Bake for about 50-60 minutes or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Cool & Serve: Let it cool in the pan for about ten minutes before transferring to a wire rack. Slice after fully cooling and serve with coffee or tea.
