cranberry cake

Tart fresh cranberries and sweet buttery cake are perfectly combined in this popular Christmas dessert!

Cranberry Christmas Cake

eggs

sugar

butter, softened

vanilla

all-purpose flour

cranberries

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. With a mixer, beat the eggs with the sugar until slightly thickened and light in color, about 5-7 minutes. The mixture should almost double in size. The eggs work as your leavening agent in this recipe, so do not skip this step. This mixture should form a ribbon when you lift the beaters out of the bowl.

Add the butter and vanilla; mix two more minutes. Stir in the flour until just combined. Add the cranberries and stir to mix throughout.

Spread in a buttered 9x13 pan. (This pan is my favorite!) Bake for 40-50 minutes, or until very lightly browned and a toothpick inserted near the center of the cake comes out clean. (I baked mine for 43 minutes.)

Let cool completely before cutting into small slices. I cut mine into fairly small pieces, about 1&quot;x2&quot;, so that they could be easily eaten at a party. Enjoy!

Cranberry cake is perfect for the holidays! Sweet AND tart it&#039;s also moist and easy to make, bake and store. A delicious cake enjoyed by all.

Fresh Cranberry Cake (super easy to make!)

butter

eggs (room temperature)

yogurt

tsp pure vanilla extract

tsp baking powder

white chocolate chips

If using frozen cranberries, let them sit on the counter while getting things ready.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

Grease or line a 9x13 pan with parchment paper.

Get prepared

Beat together the sugar and butter until light and fluffy, 2-3 minutes.

Add one egg at a time, incorporating each before adding the next. (As you add ingredients, scrape down the bowl as needed).

Mix in the yogurt and vanilla.

Add the flour and baking powder on low speed, just until incorporated.

Clean off the beaters and fold in the cranberries and white chocolate chips by hand.

The dough will be very thick and hard to stir. Stir well to incorporate all the ingredients.

Make the batter

Press the dough into the prepared pan.

Put the pan on the middle rack of the oven, away from the sides of the oven.

Bake for 50-60 minutes in a 9x13 pan, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean.

Set the pan on top of a cooling rack and let cool before cutting and serving.

Bake

Top with whipped cream, powdered sugar or icecream (or nothing at all).Devour.

Serve

Cranberry Bundt Cake with a soft and moist crumb, orange glaze, and fresh cranberries. Cranberry Orange Cake is the perfect holiday dessert.

Cranberry Bundt Cake Recipe

Tbsp unsalted butter (melted (not hot))

olive oil oil

tsp vanilla extract

buttermilk (room temperature)

tsp baking soda

tsp salt

Tbsp orange

cranberries (rinsed, dried and tossed with 1/2 Tbsp flour)

Tbsp freshly squeezed orange juice (or to reach desired consistency)

orange

sugared cranberries (optional garnish)

Preheat oven to 350˚F with a rack in the center of the oven. Generously butter and flour a bundt pan, tapping out excess flour.

In a large mixing bowl, beat together eggs and sugar for 3 minutes on high speed, until pale in color.

Add olive oil, then melted butter, and finally vanilla extract, blending between each ingredient then mix in buttermilk until well blended.

In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt then mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients on low speed until no flour streaks remain.

Toss cranberries with 1/2 Tbsp flour and fold them into the batter along with 1 Tbsp orange zest.

Pour batter into prepared bundt pan. Bake at 350˚F for 55-60 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out mostly clean with some moist crumbs. Cool 15 minutes in pan then invert onto a wire rack and cool completely before drizzling with orange glaze.

How to Make Cranberry Bundt Cake:

In a small bowl, combine powdered sugar, freshly squeezed orange juice, and a bit of orange zest. Stir together until smooth. You should have a thick pourable consistency. Add more orange juice to thin out the glaze and more powdered sugar to thicken it up.

Glaze Instructions

Simple and rustic, this Cranberry Cake is a homestyle cake loaded with fresh cranberries and a hint of orange. Top with a warm butter sauce for the ultimate holiday cake.

Cranberry Cake with Warm Butter Sauce

butter, (softened)

orange zest

heavy whipping cream

vanilla extract

Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Spray a 9&#215;13-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.

In a large bowl, beat the butter and sugar together until crumbly. Beat in the egg. In another bowl, combine the flour, baking powder and salt. Beat in 1/3 of the flour mixture, followed by 1/2 of the milk. Beat in half of the remaining flour, the remaining milk, then the remaining flour. Add the orange zest. Fold in the chopped cranberries.

Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish. Bake for 25-28 minutes, or until a tester inserted in the center comes out clean.

To make the butter sauce, combine the butter, sugar and cream in a saucepan. Place over medium heat and bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Once it comes to a boil, reduce the heat to low and continue to cook until thick, 10-15 minutes, stirring very regularly.

Serve the warm sauce poured over each slice of cake. The sauce will get thicker as it cools, and may crystallize. Re-warm the sauce as needed for serving.

A charming, festive buttermilk cranberry cake topped with a flood of vanilla-flecked buttermilk icing.

Cranberry Cake

/ 112 g rye flour

/ 375 g unbleached all-purpose flour, plus a bit extra

aluminum-free baking powder

fine-grain sea salt

/ 480 ml buttermilk

/ 225 g unsalted butter,

eggs,

Vanilla Buttermilk Glaze:

Sparkling cranberries, (optional)

Preheat the oven to 350°F / 170°C degrees. Butter and flour a 9x5-inch loaf pan. Or, a series of smaller pans. If you end up with leftover batter, bake off a cupcakes or two. You can use whatever variety of pans you prefer, just be sure to only fill the pans 2/3 of the way full of batter, and keep an eye on the baking time.

Sift the flours, baking powder and salt together and set aside. In another bowl stir together the buttermilk and vanilla, set aside.

Using a stand mixer with a paddle attachment, cream the butter until light and fluffy. With the machine on add the sugar. Beat until well incorporated. Be sure to turn off the mixer and scrape down the sides once or twice at this stage. Add the eggs one at a time, incorporating each egg before the next addition. Mix until the batter is uniform, creamy, and billowy.

Either by hand or with the mixer on low, add one-third of the dry ingredients, then one-third of the buttermilk, stirring between each addition *just* enough to incorporate. Repeat until all the flour mixture and buttermilk ingredients are in the batter. Toss the cranberries in a bit of flour, shake off excess and fold into the batter, being mindful to avoid over-mixing.

Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake until a cake tester inserted in the center comes out clean and/or the top springs back. If you’re baking multiple smaller cakes, they will be done sooner than larger ones, usually 30 - 50 minutes. A 9x5 loaf pan, or equivalent, is usually more in the range of an hour or so. Set on a cooling rack to cool slightly before removing from the pan. Cool completely before icing.

Make the Cranberry Cake:

Meanwhile, stir together the glaze ingredients, whisking until nice and smooth. Drizzle over the tops of the cooled cakes, allowing a bit of extra glaze to run down the sides. If you&#39;re adding sparkling cranberries to the top, this is the time. Allow the icing to set before serving. Dust with powdered sugar just before serving for added winter vibes. I tend to leave this cake on the counter for snacking, but it can be transferred to an air-tight container and refrigerated if you want it to keep for longer.
