Equipment

  • kitchen towel
  • Mixing bowl
  • Baking Pan

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 2 cups coarsely roasted walnuts
  • 9 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 cup dried cranberries
  • 4 tsp table salt
  • 5 cups warm water 120°F - 125°F
  • 1.5 tbsp instant yeast

Instructions

  • Prepare the yeast mixture by stirring together warm water (120°F - 125°F) and instant yeast in a small bowl. Let stand for 10 minutes so that the ingredients can combine properly.
  • In a separate large bowl, mix together all-purpose flour, salt, walnuts, cranberries, honey, and the prepared yeast.
  • Knead the mixture together for about 10 minutes until a dough forms. Then, place it in a lightly oiled bowl and cover with a kitchen towel. Let rise in a warm spot for 1 hour. **
  • Oil a 9x13 baking pan and transfer the dough to it. Shape into an even rectangle and let rise again.
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F and bake for 40 - 45 minutes, or until bread is cooked through. Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a cooling rack. Slice to serve.

Notes

  • Use fresh ingredients – the fresher the ingredients, the better the taste. Make sure to use high-quality flour and instant yeast for a great texture.
  • If you have time, let the bread rise twice. This will create a nice light and airy loaf that is full of flavor!
  • When shaping the loaf, make sure it's an even rectangle so that it cooks evenly in the oven.
  • Don't cut the bread too soon; let it cool completely before slicing.
  • This Cranberry Walnut Bread is best served warm with butter or cream cheese spread on top. It can also be used for sandwiches, French toast, and more!
