Cranberry Almond Oatmeal Bread
I’ve always been an early riser. Not only do I naturally wake up early – I just enjoy it. If sleep much past 8:00 am, I feel like I’ve wasted a huge part of my day. And now, I have a new reason to wake up – Matt and I got ourselves a dog. Her name is Ebbie Ebelskiver and she is more reliable than any alarm clock. 5:30 on the dot she is at my side, letting me know it’s time to wake up. Once, I desperately begged her for another half hour. She laid down, and at 6:00 on the dot, she was back – and this time she wasn’t taking no for an answer. Anyway, now I have company during my early mornings, and I love it. This morning after our usual walk, I baked this simple quick bread while we waited for Matt to get up. I love quick breads, and this one had great flavor without being too sweet. And the word “quick” is in it for a reason – you don’t have to wake up at the crack of dawn like us to eat this for breakfast. Cranberry, Almond, and Oat Bread Makes 1 loaf.
