Found this in a Gooseberry Patch pamphlet sent to me featuring recipes using raisins. I used dried cranberries when I made it instead of raisins. I think any dried fruit would work well, like dried cherries or pineapple. I warmed my slices and used for breakfast with a spread of peanut butter. I used the glaze but can see this being good without it too. The orange flavor added a nice depth to the bread and balanced out the cranberries I used. This can also be made into three 5x3" mini loaf pans.

Step-by-step instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 350 and grease a 9x5" loaf pan (can also fit into three 5x3" mini pans).

  2. 2

    Combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt and then set aside.

  3. 3

    Stir together sugar, yogurt, oil, eggs, vanilla and zest.

  4. 4

    Add flour mixture to wet ingredients and stir gently until well mixed (don't over mix or the loaf will be dry). Stir in dried fruit and nuts gently.
