Cranberry Thanksgiving Bread created by Ribbits

From the book, "Cranberry Thanksgiving" by Wende and Harry Devlin which we read every year growing up before making the bread. It's a family favorite, great as gifts, and a wonderful memory from my childhood.

DO NOT COOL OUTSIDE OF PAN! First time making a quick bread so this step in the directions completely ruined my loaf and it crumbled all over the place! Ugh.

I read this to my girls when they were little, and we decided to make this bread. We love this and always give it as gifts at Christmas! People just love the flavors that you can taste in it. Thank you for posting it. I am planning on making some today! Yum! Yum! Hate to give it away~~

I make this every year, but pour it in a greased 13X9 pan instead. It bakes in about 30 minutes.
