EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

*To toast pecans, heat oven to 350°F. Spread pecans in ungreased shallow pan. Bake uncovered 6 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until light brown.

We've replaced ingredients with great-tasting alternatives to create better-for-you recipes that are just as yummy as the originals.

Cranberries can get away from you and roll right off the cutting board if you try to chop too many at once. Chop just a small handful at a time for more control.

This recipe makes two loaves—one for now and one to wrap tightly and store in the freezer for later.

This is excellent!!! Made no changes, however I think next time I might add some semi sweet chocolate chip.... My youngest loved it and he was not a real fan of cranberry bread before.

how can this be healthier when you are using almost 2X as much sugar as original recipe+ maple syrup (more sugar & calories)? it still calls for white flour. I bought some UNBLEACHED flour the other day, by Gold Medal. Anxious to start using it. Using a sugar substitute such as Splenda is not healthier (or safer), just less calories. what is the purpose of using both types of flour?
