One-bowl Pumpkin Cranberry Bread

"This pumpkin cranberry bread is warmly spiced, studded with tart, juicy cranberries and crunchy nuts, and finished with a cinnamon sugar topping. Best of all, it comes together with one bowl in about 10 minutes! The easy, one-bowl recipe comes together in about 10 minutes. There’s no need to pull out an electric mixer to cream together the butter and sugar, no need to separately combine dry ingredients with wet ingredients, and you’ll have fewer dishes to wash at the end. It’s moist, but not gummy. The key to a nicely-balanced, moist loaf of pumpkin bread with a light, tender crumb is just the right amount of pumpkin puree paired with just the right amount of oil. Too much oil, butter, or pumpkin and the bread turns out dense, heavy, gummy, and wet. Too little oil, butter, or pumpkin and the bread turns out dry, crumbly, and flavorless. It’s a delicate balance! With just the right amount of warm spices, this zesty loaf offers tons of fall flavor. No bland pumpkin bread allowed! The tart, juicy cranberries are a perfect contrast to the sweet bread, while nuts provide a satisfying crunch in every bite."
