Frosted Cranberry Orange Bread

The tartness of cranberry and the sweetness of orange make for a unique and zesty flavor pairing, often popular during the festive period.

This sweet loaf recipe requires a mix of pantry basics and fruit, with frozen fruit working just as well (and costing less) than fresh fruit. Baked to golden perfection in less than an hour, it's quick, easy, and sure to get everyone feeling festive.

Good to know: For an extra festive touch, sprinkle 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon over the frosting as it's drying. The seasonal spice will emphasize the tang of the cranberries.
