I created this recipe 14 years ago by combing a couple of recipes from my collection. A friends suggested I add even more cranberries. Now there's a big burst of tart cranberry and lots of crunchy nuts in every piece. —Dawn Lowenstein, Hatboro, Pennsylvania

This recipe makes out of this world delicious bread. I've added as much as 2 cups cranberries with excellent results. If you have not yet made this bread, do so. When my son was in the Army, I'd sent him several loaves to share with buddies and superiors.

Thank you for sharing this recipe.
