Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350°. Spray a loaf pan with cooking spray. In a standing mixer on medium-high speed, cream together butter and sugar. Add lemon zest, then eggs; slowly add dry ingredients. Carefully fold in cranberries.

Pour batter into pan and bake 10 minutes. Cover with foil and reduce heat to 325°. Bake until set, about 1 hour and 10 minutes more. Cake is done when a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Remove and place on cooling rack.
