Chocolate Chip Cranberry Bread Recipe
Chocolate chip cranberry bread is soft and sweet, made with tart cranberries, chocolate chips, and a brown sugar crumble.
Equipment
- 1 loaf pan
Ingredients
Brown sugar crumble:
- ¼ cup brown sugar
- 2 tbsp flour
- 2 tbsp butter cold
- 1/8 tsp cinnamon
Chocolate chip cranberry bread:
- 2 cups flour
- 2 tsp baking powder
- ¼ tsp salt
- ¾ cup milk
- 8 tbsp butter
- ¾ cup sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 cup cranberries
- 1 cup chocolate chunks
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: flour, baking powder, and salt.
- In another bowl, combine the egg, milk, melted butter, and sugar. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until just barely incorporated; it's okay if there are a few streaks of flour.
- Gently fold in the quartered cranberries and chocolate chunks until evenly distributed throughout the batter. Transfer the batter to the loaf pan, spreading it evenly.
- In a bowl, combine brown sugar, cinnamon, flour and cut in cold butter until it is a crumbly mixture. Sprinkle the brown sugar crumble on top of the batter.
- Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Allow the chocolate chip cranberry bread to cool in the pan for about 15 minutes before slicing. Enjoy!
Notes
- For a smoother batter, ensure that ingredients like eggs, milk, and butter are at room temperature before mixing. This helps with better incorporation and a more even texture.
- When folding in cranberries and chocolate chunks, ensure they are evenly distributed throughout the batter for a balanced flavor in each slice.
- When combining wet and dry ingredients, mix only until they are just incorporated. Overmixing can lead to a denser texture in the final product.
