Cranberry Walnut Bread

RE: Cranberry Walnut Bread Post by Alph (165) | (03/20/2006) Contact To Debbie52: I'd cut the recipe in half or third (one egg) and try it for muffins. The cooking time / temp might need to be adjusted but on first try check other muffin recipes, make best guess and *write down any variations* you may use. After the first small batch you can make any adjustments needed for batter, time, temp, etc. RE: Cranberry Walnut Bread Post By Mary, Crown Point, IN (Guest Post) (03/10/2006) BEST I'VE EVER HAD!!!

I wonder if this recipe could be adapted to muffins? Anyone know? RE: Cranberry Walnut Bread Post by schmoo (13) | (03/09/2006) Contact use a food processor to chop the walnuts and cranberries if you have one- its a huge timesaver! 3/4 cup butter 3 cups white sugar 3 eggs, beaten 6 cups all-purpose flour 1 tablespoon salt 1 1/2 tablespoons baking powder 1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda 2 1/4 cups orange juice 3 tablespoons orange zest 3 cups chopped cranberries 1 1/2 cups chopped walnuts -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DIRECTIONS: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease three 8x4 inch loaf pans. Blend together butter, sugar and eggs. Sift together the flour, salt, baking powder and baking soda. Add to wet ingredients, alternating with orange juice.
