Cranberry Orange Bread (For Bread Machine)

Altered it with: sour cream and regular sugar as I didn't have honey or yogurt. No orange oil so to get the real orange flavor I did juice of 2 oranges a d their zest along with 2 tbls of orange juice concentrate. Whole fresh cranberries (1.75 cups chopped in mini food processor). Had to add in more flour as it was very wet and still was even after adding almost a full cup. Poured it into the bread pans and baked for about 40 mins

Total failure in my Cuisinart 100 bread machine. All the cranberries and walnuts sunk to the bottom and it did not rise properly. I have made a few other of this type of bread and have used my Cuisinart for five years. I never had a failure like this.

Very nice. For once, I followed the directions to bake in the bread machine and it made for a lovely loaf. However, I'll probably try this in the oven next time--I just prefer oven baked bread. Still, this rose perfectly and baked very well in the bread machine, so it's a great bread for a bread machine. I did modify it slightly and used 1/2 orange juice in place of the water. Delish! Also, a note for anyone using their bread machine for the first or second time . . .if you have a fruit/nut beep, wait to add the craisins until you hear the beep. It works well that way. Thanks for the recipe!
