Ingredients

4 cups flour
6 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups sugar
2 eggs, beaten
2 cups orange juice
1/2 cup canola oil
2 cups fresh cranberries
1 tablespoon orange zest
1/2 cup orange juice
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
1 tablespoon butter, melted
1 tablespoon orange juice

Preparation

Heat oven to 400\u00b0F.
Generously grease and flour two 9x5 inch (1-pound) loaf pans.
In a large bowl, stir together flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.
Make a well in the center and add eggs, 2 cups orange juice, and oil. Mix just until moistened. The batter will be lumpy. DO NOT overmix or bread will be tough.
Gently stir in the whole cranberries and orange zest.
Pour into loaf pans and bake for 45-50 minutes or until loaves test done.
Pour 1/4 cup orange juice over each loaf while still hot.
Mix confectioners sugar, melted butter, and 1 tablespoon orange juice to make a glaze and drizzle over warm loaves.
Refrigerate overnight to blend flavors.
