During the holiday season I love to have a little something on hand to serve along with a pot of tea when friends drop by for a visit.\u00a0 It needs to be something that I can store away in the freezer and pop in the oven or microwave for a quick warm-up.\u00a0 When I spotted some fresh cranberries in the produce department at the grocery, I knew immediately what to make.\u00a0 As soon as I returned home, I looked up a cranberry nut bread recipe and baked it right away.<\/h3>\n

\"Great<\/h3>\n

Instead of making one big loaf, I baked up four small loaves using this<\/a>.\u00a0 Small loaves are easier to thaw, and easier for me to serve.\u00a0 I can just slice up a loaf, put it on a pretty plate, and serve it with a good pot of tea.\u00a0 These loaves also make great hostess gifts and neighbor gifts and look really cute when they’re wrapped up in some parchment paper and tied with a string.<\/h3>\n
