Time 1h35m

Number Of Ingredients 16

4 c all purpose white lily or cake flour
1 box 3.4 ounce instant vanilla pudding mix
4 large eggs, room temperature
1 1/2 c truvia sugar blend or(3 cups regular sugar)
2/3 c evaporated milk
1/3 c pumpkin liqueur ( or use all milk)
1 can(s) 15 oz. canned pumpkin (2 cups)
1 c raisins plumped(cover with water & microwaved 3 minutes & drained)
1 1/2 c black walnuts chopped ( or nuts of your choice
3 c fresh cranberries (chopped)
3/4 c orange juice
1 Tbsp orange zest
1 Tbsp orange extract
1 Tbsp butter extract
1 tsp baking powder
2 tsp each baking soda & salt

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. This is what one of the Bundt pans that I used in the recipe looks like. It is called a Heritage Bundt Pan, and has a 10 cup capacity. I ordered it from Amazon. Of course the pan was not filled to the top with the batter, must allow some space for cake to rise.
  • 2. This is the other pan used also a 10 cup capacity and I also ordered from Amazon. It is called a Kugelhopf. I always get great results when I use either pan. ALWAYS ALLOW ENOUGH SPACE FOR CAKE TO RISE IN PAN, WITHOUT SPILLING OVER. If you bake complete recipe in a larger Bundt pan must allow additional baking time.
  • 3. Add dry ingredients to a medium bowl, flour, salt, baking powder, baking soda, pudding mix,& pumpkin spice & then stir to blend. Set aside till needed.
  • 4. Beat the eggs sugar and oil till thick and frothy.
  • 5. Then add in the canned Pumpkin and beat till blended. Plump the raisins in a small bowl by covering with water, and then microwave for 3 minutes, allow to cool and then drain.
  • 6. Add raisins to cake batter, and stir to blend.
  • 7. Next add the chopped Cranberries, blend into batter with a large spoon.
  • 8. Now add the Black walnuts and blend together till mixed into batter.
  • 9. Lastly add the orange juice, orange zest, both extracts, and mix together till througly blended.
  • 10. Prepare both bundt pans by spraying with non stick cooking spray or bakers joy, and then evenly divide batter between the 2 pans. Place in preheated 350 degrees F. oven and bake for 1 hour to 1 hour 5 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean when inserted into center of cake.
  • 11. Remove from oven and allow to cool for about 10 minutes then invert onto a cooling rack or platter. Serve plain with a cup of coffee, or add a glaze or frosting as desired.

CRANBERRY-ORANGE NUT BREAD



CRANBERRY-ORANGE NUT BREAD image

Categories     Bread     Nut     Bake     Christmas     Thanksgiving     Orange

Yield 12 Slices

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 C Flour
1-1/2 tsp Baking Powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp Salt
1 Tbsp Orange Zest
1-1/2 C Cranberries, fresh, chopped
1/2 C Pecans, chopped
1/4 C Butter, softened
1 C Sugar
1 Egg
3/4 C Orange Juice

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease and flour 9x5 loaf pan. Whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Add cranberries, pecans and orange zest. Set aside. In a separate bowl, cream together butter, sugar and egg until smooth. Add orange juice and mix thoroughly. Add flour mixture and beat just until moist all the way through. Pour into loaf pan and bake for 1 hour or until toothpick comes out clean.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start baking, make sure you have all the ingredients and equipment you need. This will help you stay organized and ensure that you don't miss anything important.
  • Zest the Oranges Finely: Use a microplane or fine grater to zest the oranges. This will give you a more intense citrus flavor in the bread.
  • Toast the Nuts: Toasting the nuts will enhance their flavor and make them more fragrant. You can toast them in a skillet over medium heat, stirring frequently, or in a preheated oven at 350°F for 5-7 minutes.
  • Do Not Overmix the Batter: Overmixing the batter can result in a tough, dense bread. Mix just until the ingredients are combined and no streaks of flour remain.
  • Use a Loaf Pan with Straight Sides: This will help the bread rise evenly and give it a classic loaf shape.
  • Test for Doneness: Insert a toothpick or skewer into the center of the bread. If it comes out clean, the bread is done baking.
