2 cups all-purpose flour
1 ½ cups fresh cranberries (or frozen, if preferred)
1 cup granulated sugar
½ cup unsalted butter, softened
3 large eggs
½ cup orange juice (freshly squeezed for the best flavor)
2 tablespoons orange zest
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan to prevent sticking.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
Beat in the eggs one at a time, then add the orange juice, orange zest, and vanilla extract.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture until just combined.
Gently fold in the cranberries into the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and spread evenly. Bake for 30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then turn it out onto a wire rack to cool completely before serving.
