Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tbsp clementine zest
  • 1/3 cup freshly squeezed clementine juice
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted (or neutral oil)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup milk or buttermilk
  • 1 1/2 cups fresh or frozen cranberries, chopped
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • Optional: 1/2 cup chopped pecans or walnuts

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×5-inch loaf pan or line with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In another bowl, whisk sugar, melted butter, eggs, clementine juice, zest, milk, and vanilla until smooth.
  4. Pour wet ingredients into the dry and stir gently until just combined.
  5. Fold in chopped cranberries and nuts if using. Do not overmix.
  6. Pour batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
  7. Bake for 50–60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  8. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.

Notes

  • Chopping cranberries helps distribute flavor evenly and prevents overly tart bites.
  • Use fresh clementine zest for the best citrus aroma.
  • Add a clementine glaze for a sweet, glossy finish.
  • Turn the batter into muffins—bake 18–22 minutes at 350°F.
  • For extra moisture, add 2 tbsp sour cream or Greek yogurt.
