Dried or Fresh Cranberries
Although I love fresh cranberries you really can’t use them in this recipe, the paddle in the bread machine will smash them to pieces as the bread is kneaded through the different cycles.
Instead, you will have to use dried cranberries these are a little sourer but I think it makes the bread extra delicious and is perfect to serve toasted with lots of butter.
You could use leftovers of this bread in our Cranberry and Eggnog Bread and Butter Pudding to make it extra cranberry!
