Hoilday favorite, with adjustments for time and space
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This has been a big hit with family and friends, who have asked me to make it for Thanksgiving and the winter holidays for a... while now. It's an easy recipe that is yummy every time. However, it is important to note, as previous reviews have mentioned, to use THREE loaf pans or divide into muffin pans. The recipe makes way too much batter/dough for two loaf pans. Also, it bakes for much longer than 50 minutes, but keep a close eye on it before leaving it in for too long, as the outside can easily burn.Read more

WOAH- look out for BIG bread!
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

I am giving a 4 star rating because the bread itself is delicious! However, the recipie needs a little help. I added... Chocolate Chips instead of cranberry, but otherwise did NOT ammend the recipe at all. I used the size loaf pans reccomended and my loafs are HUUUUGE! I THOUGHT I should have spread it out between three pans, and I was right. As mentioned before, cook time is NOT correct. After 50 mins, the loafs were only half cooked. Flavor GREAT, but watch this one closely, and use 3 pans!! Read more

The Muffin Version
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I loved this recipe as bread, but it always took SO long to make! I cut the 90 minutes to 30 by baking them as muffins. I... simply sprayed the pan with nonstick spray, and used the entire batter for 24 muffins. (The cups will be almost overflowing.) They ended up with big, fluffy muffins tops and looked so pretty! I took them to Thanksgiving dinner this year, and everyone loved them.Read more

Worked out Perfectly!!!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I used 8 5 x 3 loaf pans and baked them at the 350 for 50 minutes and they turned out perfectly!!! I used sundried... cranberries in the mix. It added a nice tartness as well as sweetness to the batch. Next time I think that I will add a few chopped pecans or walnuts to the batter and see how that turns outRead more

Gift size...
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I, too, cut the oil in half with applesauce, cut the sugar to 3 cups, used 3 cups coarsely chopped cranberries and added 1... cup chopped walnuts. But instead of using loaf pans, I lined large washed cans (from the large pumpkin size) with parchment paper - cutting circle for bottom and a strip for the perimeter. Fill 2/3 full with batter and bake as long as you would for a 4x8 loaf pan - I did an oven full for about 80 minutes with convection at 350*. I would recommend you start testing with a clean knife at about 70 min. They come right out of the can with a cute poofy top and are easy to slice and toast! Wrap in foil, then colored cellophane and voila!Read more

Simple & Delicious
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I always read reviews before making any recipes I get off this website, and as others instructed I increased the bake time to... 90 minutes and the bread came out perfect. I also substituted half the oil for applesauce which made it come out very moist. This recipe is extremely simple and was a huge hit!Read more
