Cranberry Orange Pecan Bread - CSA|365

Ingredients

• 2 cups whole wheat pastry flour
• 1 cup sugar
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 1/4 tsp baking soda
• 1 egg
• 1 tsp salt
• 6 tbsp butter, melted
• 2/3 cup buttermilk (I combine 1 cup milk and 1 tablespoon lemon juice or vinegar and let it stand for a few minutes, as this makes a buttermilk substitute. I then used 2/3 cup for the recipe.)
• zest of one large orange
• 1/3 cup fresh orange juice
• 1/2 cup pecans (or almonds) chopped and toasted
• 1 cup dried cranberries
• shortening (I used beef tallow )
