CORNMEAL-OATMEAL CRANBERRY-ORANGE LOAF



Cornmeal-Oatmeal Cranberry-Orange Loaf image

My husband, being a true Texan, loves cornbread almost as much as he loves me. I was not a great cornbread baker, so I bought The Cornbread Gospels by Crescent Dragonwagon to learn how to make his tummy happy, and what a great book that turned out to be. Every form and fashion of cornbread you can imagine, and (almost) all good. This recipe is from that book, and has earned rave reviews everywhere I have taken it. It's beautiful, and the essences of orange and cranberry combined with the crunchiness of stone ground cornmeal sets it apart from other quick breads, and it will leaving you wanting more. I hope you like it as well as we do.

Time 1h15m

Yield 1 large loaf, 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
1/3 cup stone-ground yellow cornmeal
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar
2 eggs
3 tablespoons canola oil
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons buttermilk
2 finely grated oranges, zest of
1 cup fresh cranberries, coarsely chopped
4 tablespoons walnuts, toasted and chopped
1/4 cup rolled oats

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350. Coat 1 large, 2 medium, or 3 small loaf pans with oil.
  • Soft the flour, cornmeal, baking powder, baking soda, sugar, and salt into a large bowl.
  • Whisk together the eggs, oil, buttermilk, and orange zest in a second, smaller bowl.
  • In a food processor, pulse the cranberries a few times until they are roughly chopped. Combine the mix-ins--the cranberries, walnuts, and oatmeal--in a third bowl. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of the flour mixture over them, and toss well.
  • Quickly combine the flour mixture and the egg mixture, using as few strokes as possible. Gently stir in the mix-ins. The batter should be stiff. Spoon the batter into the prepared pan(s). Bake for 45 to 55 minutes for the large pan, 35 to 50 minutes for the mediums, and 35 to 40 minutes for the smalls. Check two-thirds of the way through the baking period; if the loaves are browning excessively, tent them loosely with foil.
  • Let the baked breads cool for 10 minutes in the pan(s), run a thin knife around the edge of each pan, and turn the loaves out. Let finish cooling on a rack.
  • NOTE: When using cirtrus zest, try your best to get organic fruit, because it is free of the waxes and fungicides that are routinely sprayed on conventionally grown citrus fruit peels.

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h20m

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 cups all purpose flour
1 cup quick or rolled oats
1 cup granulated sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
3/4 cup milk
1/2 cup canola oil
1 tablespoon orange zest
2 eggs
1 1/4 cup fresh or frozen cranberries
a few orange slices for garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Add the flour, oats, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, sea salt and cinnamon to a large bowl and whisk until combined.
  • To a separate bowl, add the milk, canola oil, orange zest and eggs and whisk together until well combined.
  • Add the fresh or frozen cranberries to the flour mixture and toss very well to coat. Don't skip this step! Adding the fruit to the dry ingredients will help prevent them from sinking to the bottom of the loaf as it bakes. It will also make sure the batter isn't discoloured by any berries that aren't completely dry or may be releasing some of their juices before baking.
  • Add the milk mixture to the flour mixture and fold them together with a rubber spatula just until no streaks of flour remain.
  • Grease a large loaf pan with some butter or vegetable oil spray. I love to use my Misto Oil Sprayer (affiliate linfor this job since it gives you the flexibility of a conventional oil spray without all the harmful propellants they contain.
  • Pour the batter into the greased loaf pan and smooth out the top as much as you can. Place a few orange slices on top of the batter (if you wisbefore baking.
  • Bake the loaf for 60-65 minutes at 350 degrees Fahrenheit, or until it's reached a delicious golden colour and a toothpick inserted into the loaf comes out clean.
  • Let the loaf cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before removing it to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Enjoy with your favourite cup of coffee or tea for a delicious cool weather snack!

The combination of oats and cornmeal with the hint of orange makes this a good bread to use for your favorite stuffing recipe. Try adding some pecan halves, raisins or dried cranberries or cherries. It's great with chicken and turkey and for stuffing pork chops.DID YOU KNOW?Cornmeal can be yellow, white or blue, depending on the type of corn from which it is made. Yellow cornmeal has slightly more vitamin A than white cornmeal. We like yellow cornmeal for this bread because it adds a sunny color that goes so well with the flavor of the orange juice.

ORANGE CORNMEAL SHORTBREAD



Orange Cornmeal Shortbread image

Shortbread is the ultimate expression of four building blocks of baking: butter, sugar, flour, and salt. Here, it is flavored with orange zest. Try serving it with Sweet Corn Ice Cream.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Cookie Recipes

Yield Makes 2 dozen cookies

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
3/4 cup confectioners' sugar, plus more for dusting
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1 1/2 teaspoons orange zest
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons yellow cornmeal
1 teaspoon table salt

Steps:

  • Using an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat butter and sugar until creamy and smooth, about 2 minutes. Add vanilla and zest. Beat well, scraping sides of bowl as necessary. With mixer on low speed, mix in flour, 2 tablespoons cornmeal, and salt until well combined, about 3 minutes. Form dough into two logs about 1 1/2 inches in diameter; wrap in plastic wrap, and chill at least 1 hour.
  • Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Place remaining 1/4 cup cornmeal on a sheet of parchment or waxed paper. Remove plastic from chilled dough; roll logs in cornmeal to coat. Slice into 1/4-inch rounds. Place on a baking sheet about 1 inch apart. Bake until pale golden all over, 25 to 30 minutes. Cool on a wire rack. Dust with sugar.

Tips:

  • Use fresh oranges. Fresh oranges will give your bread the best flavor. If you don't have fresh oranges, you can use orange juice concentrate, but be sure to dilute it with water according to the package directions.
  • Zest the oranges before juicing them. The zest is the outermost part of the orange peel, and it contains a lot of flavor. Zesting the oranges before juicing them will help to release the flavor into the juice.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will make the bread tough. Mix the ingredients just until they are combined.
  • Bake the bread until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. This will ensure that the bread is cooked through.
  • Let the bread cool completely before slicing it. This will help to prevent the bread from crumbling.

Conclusion:

Orange oat cornmeal bread is a delicious and versatile bread that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It's a great way to use up leftover oranges, and it's also a good source of fiber and nutrients. With its unique flavor and texture, orange oat cornmeal bread is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
