Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan with butter or cooking spray, then lightly coat it with flour.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon of baking soda, 1 teaspoon of baking powder, ½ teaspoon of salt, and a teaspoon each of cinnamon and nutmeg.
- In a separate bowl, combine 1 cup of granulated sugar, ⅓ cup of vegetable oil, 2 large eggs, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, ½ cup of fresh orange juice, and the zest of one orange. Whisk together until smooth.
- Pour the wet mixture into the bowl with the dry ingredients and gently fold together until just combined.
- Fold in 1 cup of grated zucchini and 1 cup of fresh or frozen cranberries until evenly distributed.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and bake for 50-55 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
- Once baked, cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes
Squeeze excess liquid from zucchini and avoid overmixing the batter for the best texture.
