CRANBERRY FRUIT BREAD 
2 c. sifted flour
1 1/2 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. salt
Juice and grated rind of 1 orange
1 egg, well beaten
2 c. fresh cranberries, cut in half
1 c. sugar
1/2 tsp. baking soda
2 tbsp. melted shortening
1 1/2 c. chopped nuts

Sift dry ingredients. Combine orange juice, rind, shortening, and enough water to make 3/4 cup juice, then stir in beaten egg. Pour this mixture into the dry ingredients, just enough to dampen. Fold in halved cranberries and nuts. Spoon into greased loaf pan, 9 x 5 x 3 inch, spreading it evenly making corners and sides slightly higher than center. Bake in 350 degree oven 50-60 minutes. Remove from pan.
