Instructions
Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
Grease bread pan (if necessary).
Lightly beat eggs.
Stir pumpkin puree, eggs, oil & sugar together.
Mix in remaining ingredients (except the cranberries). Stir until the batter is fully mixed.
Add the cranberries after the batter has been completely mixed. Make sure the cranberries are evenly spread throughout the batter.
Pour finished batter into a nonstick bread pan. Smooth out the top of the batter within the bread pan.
Bake in the oven at 325 F for 65-70 minutes.
Take out of oven and let the pumpkin bread cool down in the bread pan for 10 minutes. Do not remove the pumpkin bread from the bread pan during this 10 minute cool down period. Use oven mitts as the bread pan will be very hot coming out of the oven.
After 10 minutes, remove the pumpkin cranberry bread from the bread pan. Place the pumpkin bread on a cooling rack in order to completely cool. This cool down may take 1-2 hours. Gently slide a silicon spatula between the pumpkin bread and the bread pan walls if the pumpkin bread is stuck in the pan.
