    Really delicious but like others said, bake time is way off. I would also consider cutting the sugar a bit & adding more cranberries.

    This recipe is fine, with the exception of the bake time. I baked in glass for 1 hour 35 minutes, convection. Then I switched off the oven, propped the door and let the loaves cool before removing from the oven. Helps prevent sag and splits.
    The tartness of the fresh cranberries pairs nicely with the sweetness of this cakey bread. Try ground cardamom in place of the PP spice. I baked this bread and took it on a camping trip, then sliced it and toasted it on the camp stove griddle for breakfast. My family exclaimed "More please!"

    I LOVE this bread. It's the best quickbread I've ever made. I did make some modifications. I use olive oil instead of vegetable oil. I also use brown sugar and only use 2 cups. I add about 1/3 to 1/2 cup of molasses. I make it with whole wheat flour. I also add more spices just for extra flavor. I add cinnamon, ginger, ground cloves, and nutmeg as well as some orange zest. It does take longer to cook than the recipe calls for. Around an hour and 10 minutes for me. I use homemade pumpkin puree though so mine might be more watery than canned. The cooking time difference is the only reason I didn't give this recipe 5 stars.

    I have made this twice now and it is delicious! My only complaint with the recipe is that it actually takes about 1.5 hours to bake at 350F for me.

    I followed this recipe exactly. It was as dry as cardboard. Cooked less time than even recommended. Awful. Sorry.

    My new favorite quick bread for fall! I added craisins instead of straight up cranberries, and doubled all the spices. Even my 9 year old who usually isn't too interested in breads like this can't get enough.

    Made this for the first time this Thanksgiving-I cut the sugar back to 3 cups and the batch made 7 mini loaves. Everyone loved it! I will keep this recipe for years to come and have shared it with family members.

    This recipe took much longer than 50 minutes, but once it was done, MAN was it good. I'm going to make it as Christmas gifts this year, but I'm going to use smaller baking dishes and less batter per loaf, because it came out really big and took a long time to cook. But if you can get it right, it's REALLY yummy.
