Preheat oven to 325°. Whisk together the first five ingredients. In another bowl, whisk orange juice, egg, water and butter. Stir into dry ingredients just until moistened. Fold in cranberries, pecans and orange zest.
Bake in a greased 9x5-in. loaf pan until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, 55-60 minutes. Cool 10 minutes before removing from pan to a wire rack.

Best cranberry bread ever, I would give this 10 stars! it's orangey, full of tart cranberries and sugar but it's not too sweet. I made four mini loaves to send to family and friends with Christmas cookies and they all loved it. I added an orange glaze witch kept it moist during mailing. (FYI, mini loaves take about 40 min in the oven).

I make this every Thanksgiving and Christmas. Each time I wonder why I don't make it throughout the year. So good!

If you like cranberry and citris, you will love it. I was given cranberry bread for my Thanksgiving dinner project. This sounded like the one my mom always made. I made it and was nervous because I am not a baker. It came out wonderful, the bread basket on Thanksgiving was empty, and everybody wanted it for breakfast the next day! It is easy, will make a great gift, and trust me your bread basket will be empty to!!
