Cranberry, Pumpkin, Banana Bread

Jenny H, Wedge Co-op, Minneapolis, MN

1 1/2 c All-Purpose Flour

1 1/4 t Baking Soda

1 t Salt

1 t Cinnamon, ground

1/2 t Nutmeg, ground

1 T Butter, softened

1 c Brown Sugar, packed

1 c Pumpkin Puree

1/2 c Whole Cranberry Sauce

1 Egg

1 Banana, mashed

Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F.  Sift flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg into a large bowl.

Beat the butter, brown sugar, pumpkin, cranberry sauce, egg, and banana with an electric mixer in a bowl until smooth. Gradually stir in the flour mixture, mixing until just combined. Pour batter into a 9×5-inch loaf pan.

Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 1 hour. Cool in the pans for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack.
