Indulge in a festive lemon-cardamom cherry loaf, a must-have for special occasions!
Ingredients:
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup butter, softened
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup dried cherries, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon grated lemon peel
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cardamom
Instructions:
  • Preheat oven to 350°F and generously coat the bottom of a 9x5- or 8x4-inch loaf pan with cooking spray. In a large bowl, cream together sugar and butter until light and fluffy. Mix in vanilla, then add buttermilk and eggs, blending well (don't worry if the mixture looks curdled).
  • Combine the remaining ingredients in a small bowl. Gently fold the mixture into the buttermilk until the dry ingredients are just moistened. Transfer the batter to the pan.
  • Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 15 minutes, then transfer to a cooling rack. Once completely cooled for about 1 1/2 hours, wrap tightly and store in the refrigerator.
