- 1 cup white sugar
- 3/4 cup canola oil
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 2 tsp orange zest
- 2 & 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- Pinch salt
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1 & 1/2 cups dried cranberries
- 1 cup pistachios
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Liberally grease a 9" loaf pan with cooking spray and set aside.
Meanwhile, in a large bowl, whisk together the sugar, oil, eggs and buttermilk. Add in the flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon until combined. Lastly, fold in the cranberries, orange zest and pistachios.
Pour the mixture into the prepared pan and spread in an even layer. Bake for approx. 50-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean or with moist crumbs. Cool completely before cutting or serving. Feel free to glaze if you'd like, but I like it without!
