Stephanie Lynes' Pumpkin Cranberry Bread

This pumpkin bread is amazing because the fresh cranberries give just enough tart contrast to the pumpkin bread.  It's really yummy.  Frozen cranberries work as well and are cheaper and usually available year round.

1 1/2 c flour
1 T. pumpkin pie spice 
      or   1 t. cinnamon, 1/2 t. nutmeg, 1/2 t. cloves
1 t. baking soda
1 t. salt
1 1/2 c. sugar
1/2 of 15-oz. can pumpkin puree (about 1 c.)
2 large eggs
1/2 c. vegetable oil
1/4 c. orange juice
1 c. fresh cranberries

Grease and flour one 9" x 5" loaf pan.  Bake 45 min at 350 degrees until knife comes out clean.  Cool 10 min. then loosen from pan.
