    Grease a loaf pan with butter or oil and lightly flour it to prevent sticking.

Combining Mixtures

    Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined; avoid over-mixing.

  2. 6

    Fold in the chopped walnuts and dried cranberries until evenly distributed.

Baking

  1. 7

    Pour into Pan

    Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.

Cooling and Serving

  1. 9

    Cool the Cakebread

    Remove the cakebread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.

  2. 10

    Slice the cakebread and serve warm or at room temperature with butter or honey if desired.
