    3/4 cup dried cranberries


    Ingredients Needed to Complete Breads

    Recipe



    To make mix: In a large bowl, combine flour, baking powder, baking
    soda,
    cinnamon and salt; mix well. Add oats, cherries and cranberries; mix
    well.
    Transfer to resealable plastic bag, a decorative jar with lid or other
    airtight container. Store in cool dry place.

    Variation: Substitute raisins for dried cherries and cranberries and
    increase ground cinnamon to 1-1/2 teaspoons in mix.

    To prepare breads:

    1. Heat oven to 350F. Lightly spray four 6 x 3-3/4-inch disposable
    aluminum
    foil mini loaf pans with no-stick cooking spray.

    2. Place bread mix in large bowl. In small bowl, combine honey, milk,
    butter and eggs with wire whisk or fork; mix well. Add to dry
    ingredients
    all at once; stir just until dry ingredients are moistened. (Do not
    overmix.) Pour into pans, dividing evenly.

    3. Bake 22 to 28 minutes or until tops of breads feel firm when touched
    and
    wooden pick inserted near center has a few moist crumbs clinging to it.
    (Do
    not overbake.) Cool breads in pans on wire rack. Wrap tightly in
    aluminum
    foil. Store at room temperature up to 2 days. For longer storage, label
    and
    freeze.

    Variations:

    Large Loaves
    Lightly spray two 8-1/4 x 4-1/4-inch disposable foil baking pans with
    cooking spray. Divide batter evenly between pans. Bake at 350F 35 to 40
    minutes or until wooden pick inserted in center has a few moist crumbs
    clinging to it. Proceed as recipe directs.

    Mini Bundt Loaves
    Lightly spray six mini Bundt pan cups with cooking spray. Divide batter
    evenly between cups. Bake at 350F 23 to 27 minutes. Remove from cups;
    cool
    on wire rack. Drizzle with favorite glaze; decorate as desired.
