This glazed cranberry bread strikes the perfect balance between tart and sweet thanks to the cranberries in the loaf itself and the citrusy glaze on top. Because you’ve got such a balanced baked good, you don’t need to change a thing to yield a treat that the whole family will love. But, that doesn’t mean that there isn’t room for some customizations. For those who prefer a little extra texture and crunch in their bread, Morone says, “A nice addition to it would be adding nuts to the batter, such as walnuts or pecans.”
As for the glaze, it’s possible that you want to stay away from alcohol entirely, or you just don’t have orange liqueur on hand. While Morone does stress that “the orange liqueur in the glaze gives it a nice, deep flavor,” she notes that “if you don’t want to use liqueur in this dish, you can easily just use orange juice, instead.”
