Today was one of those Sundays where I sit around drinking coffee and slowly working on several assignments. I knew that I needed to bake something to warm the kitchen a little and give me energy to sustain all the graphing.
Cranberries were on sale since the Thanksgiving rush is over, and a friend who was in town for the weekend left an orange in my room that was perfect for zesting. I searched through a few cookbooks looking for this recipe, since I remembered making it last fall. This wonderful recipe is in Veganomicon. It also calls for crushed walnuts, but I prefer my bread soft and crumbly.
It smelled too delicious to let it cool enough to properly slice. Even if I had let it cool, I have never quite figured out how to make slices of baked goods look delicious. Do you have any tips?
the bread looks delicious! yumm the first picture!my baked goods usually end getting eaten and i have to make do with taking pictures of 1 or 2 remaining slices... i just add some things around them.. like top them with cranberries or add lots of other props:)
ReplyDeletenice call with the no walnuts! i made bread last night and couldn't wait for it to cool to eat it. the slice fell apart before i was halfway through it. but the piece i cut this morning was much prettier. the only tips i know are letting it cool and using a serrated knife. however, i have heard of people using an electric knife and a bread slicing guide, so maybe if you're feeling fancy you can experiment with those someday.
ReplyDeleteThanks for linking to me! I love this recipe (and am missing cranberries very much this year since we are out of the country). Your photos are great!
