Ingredients

1 large orange

2 1/2 cup(s) all-purpose flour

1 cup(s) sugar

2 teaspoon(s) baking soda

1/2 teaspoon(s) baking powder

2 large eggs

2 cup(s) fresh cranberries, chopped

HONEY BUTTER

1 stick(s) butter, softened

2 tablespoon(s) honey

1/8 teaspoon(s) cinnamon

Directions

Preheat oven to 375. Grease a 9" by 5" metal loaf pan. From orange, grate 1 tsp of peel and squeeze 1/2 cup of juice.

In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

In a small bowl, beat orange peel, juice, melted butter, and egg until blended.

With a wooden spoon, stir egg mixture into flour mixture just until blended (batter will be stiff). Stir in cranberries.

Pour batter into a greased and floured pan.

Bake until a toothpick inserted comes out clean, 50-55 minutes. Cool loaf in pan for 10 minutes; remove from pan and cool completely on a wire rack.

For honey butter, whip together butter, honey, and cinnamon until completely combine and fluffy.
