Yep - just as everyone said, it's perfect. Not too sweet. I added more cranberries and nuts (personal prefrence), and it came out great. Thanks for sharing.

I quadrupled this recipe and it made ten mini loafs which I gave away as part of my baked goods package to the neighbors and family. It was difficult to judge if it was done even with the toothpick test but the suggested cooking time turned out to be accurate for 10 mini-loafs in the oven at once. I added a teaspoon of vanilla and a few dashes of nutmeg. This bread was sooooo good and gets better each day as the flavors meld. I even liked it better after refrigerating it for a couple of days. This is a heavey cake-like nutty-sweet-tart bread that tastes like Christmas but I will have to make it for myself all year because it is that good!

We were so impressed with this recipe that I've decided to finally review a recipe here after using this site for nearly 2 years! This is a phenomenal bread. The base is wonderful and can be used with a variety of different fruits - strawberry, blueberry, cherry, dried mix, etc. We prefer it without nuts and make it exactly as given except we use halved cranberries rather than whole. We've used both fresh and frozen with no difference in quality. When my husband first made this I was skeptical because I thought it would need more sugar and some other spices like cinnamon. I was wrong! The flavor is perfect as is. The orange juice and zest give a sweetness and complexity that is just heavenly. Thanks so much for sharing this recipe with us!

Very good. Moist and not too sweet. I added a jar of chopped (and rinsed) Green Maraschino Cherries to make it even more festive looking. Beautiful!

Really tasty bread with an almost cakelike density. Great with or without the nuts.

Great bread! I didn't have an orange so I cut up an apple and used apple juice instead of oj. I also smashed a banana into the mix. Super moist - wonderful taste!

Excellent. I doubled the recipe and it turned out great. When doubling, I used the entire bag of fresh cranberries (12 oz.) This is the recipe that comes off of the the Ocean Spray bag. Great bread for the holidays. TIP - Be sure to cover the bread tightly with foil once it comes out of the oven for about 10-15 min. It will steam and keep the bread super moist - a trick for all loaf quick breads.

This bread is fabulous! The contrast of the tart cranberry and sweet bread is a great combination! I made three mini loaves with this recipe. I found that if the bread sits for a couple of days, then the flavors blend and you have less contrast between the tart and the sweet. It slices great and looks very pretty and festive. I will be making this again!

I normally don't care much for sweet breads or desserts, but this is very, very good! The balance between the orange juice and zest, and the cranberries is very unique. Followed recipe to a tee other than substituting vegetable oil for the butter, and pecans for the walnuts. I did find the baking time was way too long. Mine was done in 45 minutes. A 5 star recipe that is highly recommended!

This tastes great! I doubled the recipe to make 2 loaves. I also used oil rather than butter (was tempted to use applesauce, but didn't have any), and next time I think I'll cut the cranberries down to 1 cup per loaf. It was a little heavy on the berries for me.

This was just awesome! Didn't change a thing except I used dried cranberries (Craisins) instead of fresh/frozen.

This was great, however, I increased the butter from 1/4 to 1/2 cup and used two eggs. Amazing!!!
