But ever since I was introduced to this cranberry bread recipe when I was in second grade, oh man was I hooked. I mean, my mother did keep this recipe after all this time so that has to mean something, right?

You don’t even have to eat all of it (even though you’re totally going to want to). You can bring it to all of the wonderful holiday parties you’ve been invited to. It’s definitely a crowd pleaser.
