Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups cranberries (fresh or frozen)
  • 1 ½ cups sugar
  • 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, at room temperature

How to Make Delightful Cream Cheese Cranberry Bread

  1. Preheat your oven to 350ºF. Lightly grease a 9 x 5-inch loaf pan with non-stick spray or butter.
  2. In a large bowl, use a mixer to cream together the butter, cream cheese, and sugar. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, followed by the vanilla extract.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the baking soda, flour, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until fully combined.
  4. Gently fold in the cranberries, then pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven for 60 to 70 minutes. To check for doneness, insert a toothpick into the center; it should come out clean. Allow the loaf to cool for about 15 minutes before serving.
