Ingredients
 

Main Ingredients

  • 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 0.5 cup fresh cranberries halved
  • 8 oz cream cheese softened
  • 0.5 cup unsalted butter melted
  • 2 large eggs
  • 0.5 cup sour cream
  • 1.5 tsp baking powder
  • 0.25 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan and set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
  • In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese and sugar together until smooth. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
  • Mix in the melted butter, sour cream, and vanilla extract until combined.
  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined. Gently fold in the cranberries.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Allow the loaf to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then remove and cool completely on a wire rack before slicing.

Notes

This loaf can be refrigerated for up to 5 days and tastes great toasted with butter or cream cheese.
