Ingredients
  

  • 2 (270) cups (grams) gfJules Gluten Free All Purpose Flour
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 ½ tsp. baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp. baking soda
  • 1 tsp. salt
  • 1/4 cup butter or vegan butter
  • 3/4 cup orange juice
  • 1 egg well beaten
  • 2 cups fresh cranberries coarsely chopped (may use frozen berries)
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped walnuts (optional)
  • 1 Tbs. orange zest

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350° F.
  • Whisk all dry ingredients together in a large bowl. Cut in butter until mixture resembles a coarse cornmeal (Jules note: or use paddle attachment on a stand mixer and mix just until butter forms small pebbles throughout).
  • In a separate bowl, combine orange juice, orange rind and egg (Jules note: fresh squeezed OJ is amazing, but not required). 
  • Pour all at once into dry ingredients, mixing just enough to dampen. Carefully fold in the nuts & cranberries.
  • Spoon into a lightly oiled or oiled and GF floured 9″ or 10″ loaf pan. Spread corners and sides slightly higher.
  • Bake for 1 hour. A knife should come out of the center cleanly. (Jules note: in my oven this loaf baked for 67 minutes; begin checking with a toothpick at 1 hour and remove when toothpick comes out with only crumbs attached and no wet batter.)
  • Remove to cool on a wire rack before slicing.
