Ingredients

The following ingredients have 10 Servings
  • 1/2 cup dried cranberries
  • 1/2 cup boiling water
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup lightly packed brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoons butter (melted)
  • 1/2 cup dried apricots (chopped)
  • 1/2 cup walnuts (chopped)

Instruction

  • Preheat the over to 350°F. Grease a 9 x 5-inch loaf pan.
  • Place the dried cranberries in a small bowl and pour the boiling water over top. Allow them to stand and soften for 15 minutes, drain well and pat dry lightly.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, brown sugar, baking powder and salt.
  • In a medium bowl, beat the egg. Add the milk, vanilla extract and melted butter. Beat together until well blended. Add to the flour mixture and stir until well combined.
  • Stir in the chopped apricots, cranberries and walnuts until thoroughly distributed throughout the batter.
  • Transfer the batter to the prepared loaf pan, smooth the top and bake for 40 to 45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  • Cool for 5 minutes in the pan, then turn out onto a cooling rack. Allow to cool completely before wrapping for storage.
