LEMON CRANBERRY BREAD

Steps:

• For Cranberries: In a small saucepan over medium-high heat; bring the lemon juice, brandy, and dried cranberries to a boil. Cover and remove from heat. Let cool completely and then drain, reserving the cranberries and the juice separately. For Pound Cake: Preheat oven to 350. Butter and flour a 10 inch bundt pan. If using a dark colored pan, reduce the oven temperature to 325. In a separate bowl whisk together the flour, baking soda and salt. In the bowl of your electric mixer, or with a hand mixer, beat the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add lemon zest, vanilla extract and eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Scrape down the sides of the bowl. With mixer on low, add 1/3 of flour mixture, alternating with the sour cream, about 1/2 cup at a time, beating just until batter is smooth. (You will have three additions of flour and two of the sour cream.) Stir in the drained cranberries. Pour batter into bundt pan and smooth the top. Bake for approximately 60 - 75 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the middle of the cake comes out with a few moist crumbs. Remove from oven and place on a wire rack. Let cool 5 minutes and then lightly brush the top of the cake with half of the reserved cranberry liquid. After 10 more minutes loosen sides of pan with a sharp knife and invert onto a wire rack. Immediately brush the top and sides of the cake with the remaining cranberry liquid. Cool the cake completely before frosting. Lemon Frosting: In a bowl, combine the sifted confectioners sugar with the 2 tablespoons lemon juice. (You want the icing to be thicker than a glaze but still thin enough that it will just run over the sides of the cake. If not the right consistency add more lemon juice or powdered sugar, accordingly.) Pour the frosting over the top of the cake, allowing the icing to drip down the sides. Let the icing dry before covering and storing.

LEMON CRANBERRY BREAD

Steps:

• Grate the peel from two medium size lemons (preferably organic), then squeeze them, removing the seeds from the juice.
• Place all ingredients, except the cranberries and lemon peel, in bread machine in the order suggested by the manufacturer. Process on Dough setting, or knead together by hand. Add the cranberries and lemon peel shortly before the kneading is complete. This is a little tricky - too
• early and the cranberries will be beaten to shreds, too late and they won't be mixed in well. Allow the dough to rise for about an hour, until doubled in size.
• Place dough onto a lightly floured board and punch down. Lightly grease a 8 1/2 x 4 1/2 " loaf pan with butter. Without overworking the dough, place it in the loaf pan and push down until it's evenly distributed all the way into the corners.
• Cover with a floured towel, and let rise in a warm place for 45 minutes or until double in bulk.
• Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until the loaf is golden brown and you get a hollow sound when tapping the bottom. Place on a wire rack and allow to cool for 10 minutes before slicing.
