2.  sugar, and vanilla. Incorporate eggs one at a time, ensuring each is well mixed.
3. In a separate bowl, mix flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually blend this into the creamy mixture. Gently fold in cranberries and pecans.
4. Divide the batter into two greased 9×5 inch loaf pans. Bake for 45-60 minutes at 350°F. Alternatively, use four mini loaf pans and bake for 40 minutes.Note: Initially, this recipe suggested a single loaf pan baked for 90 minutes. However, feedback led to a modification for two loaf pans. Both one and two loaf pan methods work, but two pans are more reliable. Adjust baking time to 50-60 minutes. Mini loaf pans also yield great results.

• Some bakers experienced issues with the bread not baking thoroughly. Retesting has confirmed it bakes well in both one and two 9×5 loaf pans. Adjust your baking time accordingly.
• This recipe is versatile and can be adapted to various loaf pan sizes, ensuring a delightful baking experience every time.
