Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 0.75 cup Milk
• 0.25 cup Vegetable oil
• 1 large Egg
• 0.5 cup Dried cranberries
• 0.5 cup Raisins
• 0.5 cup Chopped walnuts or pecans
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and lightly flour a 9x5-inch loaf pan, or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, salt, and ground cinnamon. Mix well to evenly distribute the dry ingredients.

Step 3

In a separate medium-sized bowl, whisk together the milk, vegetable oil, egg, and vanilla extract until well combined.

Step 4

Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring just until combined. Do not overmix.

Step 5

Fold in the dried cranberries, raisins, and chopped nuts until evenly distributed throughout the batter.

Step 6

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread it evenly with a spatula.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean.

Step 8

Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.

Step 9

Serve slices of Cranberry Raisin Nut Bread warm or at room temperature. Enjoy as is or with a spread of butter or cream cheese.
