CRANBERRY PRALINE QUICK BREAD

 

A brown sugar glaze adds a festive touch to these

cranberry mini loaves.

 

Preparation 20 min.

Baking 30 min.

 

Bread Ingredients:

2 cups all-purpose flour

1/2 cup sweetened dried cranberries

1 cup sugar

1 cup LAND O LAKES® Sour Cream

1/2 cup LAND O LAKES® Butter, softened

2 eggs

1 teaspoon vanilla

2 teaspoons baking powder

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup chopped pecans

 

Glaze Ingredients:

1/3 cup firmly packed brown sugar

1/3 cup LAND O LAKES® Butter

1/4 cup finely chopped pecans

 

Heat oven to 350°F. Combine 2 tablespoons flour and

cranberries in small bowl; toss to coat. Set aside.

 

Combine sugar, sour cream, butter, eggs and vanilla in

large bowl. Beat at medium speed, scraping bowl often,

until creamy. Reduce speed to low; add remaining

flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Beat just

until moistened. Stir in cranberry mixture and 1/2 cup

pecans by hand.

 

Spoon batter evenly into 4 greased and floured mini (5

1/2x3-inch) loaf pans. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes or

until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.

Cool 10 minutes; remove from pans.

 

Meanwhile, combine brown sugar and 1/3 cup butter in

1-quart saucepan. Cook over medium heat until mixture

comes to a boil (3 to 4 minutes). Spoon glaze mixture

over warm loaves. Immediately sprinkle with 1/4 cup

pecans.

 

TIP: One greased (9x5-inch) loaf pan can be used

instead of the 4 mini loaf pans. Bake for 60 to 65

minutes.

 

Yield: 32 servings (4 mini loaves)
