- Combine the wet and dry ingredients gently until just mixed.
- Toss cranberries in a bit of flour before folding them into the batter to keep them evenly distributed.

Notes
Feel free to substitute dried cranberries for fresh if needed, and consider swapping orange juice for milk or apple cider for a different flavor. Don't overmix the batter to ensure a moist loaf. Just mix until combined. Adding nuts or spices like cinnamon can give the bread a delightful twist. For storage, keep the bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days or freeze for up to three months. Thaw overnight before serving. Try serving the bread with cream cheese or honey for a delicious touch!
