Cranberry-Nut Bread - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    2 cups all-purpose flour
    1 cup white sugar
    1/2 cup brown sugar
    1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
    1 teaspoon baking soda
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    1/4 cup butter
    3/4 cup orange juice
    1 egg, well beaten
    1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    1 tablespoon grated orange zest
    1 1/2 cups cranberries
    1/2 cup chopped walnuts
Preparation
    Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan.
    Sift flour, white sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together in a large mixing bowl. Mash butter into the flour mixture with a pastry cutter until the mixture resembles coarse cornmeal.
    Stir orange juice, egg, vanilla extract, and orange zest together in a small bowl; add to flour mixture and stir just until the dry ingredients are moistened and batter-like. Fold cranberries and walnuts through the batter; spoon into the prepared loaf pan, spreading so the corners and sides are slightly higher than the center.
    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.
