Preheat oven to 300˚F or 325˚F. Lightly butter three miniloaf pans (use nonstick pans made of heavy-gauge metal). Optional: For easy cleanup and removal, cut strips of waxed paper to fit in the bottoms of the pans and allow them to hang over the edge by an inch or two.

Put cream cheese and two eggs in the bowl of an electric mixer and beat with a flat beater until smooth, thick, and fluffy. Add the remain- ing eggs, one at a time, beating briefly after each addition. Add the remaining 
ingredients except for the cranberries. Mix together at low speed. Then fold in the cranberries.

Spoon the batter into the pans and bake the cranberry bread for about 40 to 50 minutes or until done. Cool before slicing. Keep refrigerated (keeps for about 3 to 4 days). Freeze bread that isn’t going to be used soon.




















Variation: Whole-Wheat-Flour Cranberry Bread

Substitute 1cup stoneground whole-wheat flour for 1cup wheat (white) flour. There is a negligible gain in total carb of 1.1 grams.
