Cranberry-Apple Bread Recipe

Prep: 15 min. Bake: 35 min. + cooling

Yield: 24 Servings

15 35 50

Ingredients

2-1/3 cups reduced-fat biscuit/baking mix
3/4 cup sugar
5 egg whites
1/2 cup reduced-fat sour cream
1/4 cup fat-free milk
1/4 cup canola oil
1 teaspoon grated orange peel
1 cup chopped peeled apple
3/4 cup fresh or frozen cranberries, chopped
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
2 to 3 teaspoons orange juice

Directions

In a large bowl, combine biscuit mix and sugar. In another bowl, whisk the egg whites, sour cream, milk, oil and orange peel. Stir into dry ingredients just until moistened. Fold in apple and cranberries.
Pour into three 5-3/4-in. x 3-in. x 2-in. loaf pans coated with cooking spray. Bake at 375° for 35-40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks.
In a small bowl, combine confectioners' sugar and enough orange juice to achieve a drizzling consistency; drizzle over cooled loaves. Yield: 3 loaves (8 slices each).
