“This is a wonderful treat during the holidays! It just tastes 'Christmasy' and is a must with a cup of coffee or hot tea! I received it from a friend from the Northeast.” - by LOUGRAY

Original recipe yields 1 loaf
Directions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a loaf pan.
- In a large bowl, combine flour, salt, baking powder, baking soda, and sugar.
- In a 1-cup (or larger) measuring cup combine juice and zest of the orange, butter and enough boiling water to reach 3/4 cup. Stir into flour mixture. Fold in egg, walnuts and cranberries. Pour batter into prepared pan.
- Bake in preheated oven for 1 hour, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean. Cool loaf in the pan for 5 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.
- To make the icing combine confectioners' sugar, butter, orange juice and milk; add more milk if necessary so that the icing is thin and slightly runny. Drizzle over bread; allow icing to set before slicing.
