Ingredients

  • 2 cups gluten free flour blend see notes
  • 1 teaspoon xanthan gum omit if your blend contains it
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 1 cup fresh cranberries roughly chopped
  • 1 cup white chocolate chips
  • 2 large eggs room temperature
  • 1/2 cup milk see notes
  • 1/2 cup pulp-free orange juice not from concentrate
  • 1/3 cup avocado oil canola or vegetable oil can be subbed
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 9x5 inch loaf pan with non-stick spray and line with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the gluten free flour, xanthan gum, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Stir in the cranberries and white chocolate chips to coat.
  • In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, orange juice, oil, and vanilla extract. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until completely incorporated.
  • Transfer the batter to the prepared baking pan and bake on the center rack at 350 degrees for 50-65 minutes or until a cake tester comes out clean. (see notes about baking with frozen cranberries)
  • Once done, cool the bread in the pan on a wire rack for 25 minutes. Then remove the loaf from the pan, discard the parchment paper, and cool completely on a wire rack before slicing.

Notes

    1. I used my Nightshade Free Gluten-Free Flour Blend in this recipe. If you use a flour blend that contains xanthan gum, omit the amount called for in the recipe.
    2. For dairy-free cranberry bread, use unsweetened coconut milk beverage in place of the milk and use dairy-free white chocolate chips.
    3. Frozen cranberries can be used in place of the fresh cranberries but will add a considerable amount of baking time. Cover with foil towards the end if the loaf starts to brown too much.
    4. Store wrapped tightly in plastic wrap at room temperature for up to 3 days.
    5. To freeze, tightly wrap the whole loaf, sliced or unsliced, in plastic wrap, and place in a freezer-safe bag. Freeze for up to 3 months.
