                          For the Bread:
    1              stick  unsalted butter -- melted and cooled (or 
1/2 cup vegetable oil), plus more for the pan
    1 1/4           cups  all-purpose flour
       3/4           cup  granulated sugar
    1           teaspoon  baking powder
    1           teaspoon  salt
       1/2      teaspoon  baking soda
       1/2      teaspoon  ground cinnamon
       1/2      teaspoon  grated nutmeg
    1                cup  dried cranberries
    2              large  eggs
       1/2           cup  plain yogurt -- or sour cream
    1           teaspoon  vanilla extract
    1           teaspoon  grated orange zest -- optional
    1                cup  shredded zuchini -- squeezed dry
                          For the Glaze:
    1                cup  confectioner's sugar
    1         tablespoon  milk
    1                     vanilla bean -- split lengthwise and seeds scraped

Make the zucchini bread: Preheat the oven to 350F. Lightly butter one 
9-by-5" loaf pan or three 6-by-3" mini pans.

Whisk the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, salt, baking soda, 
cinnamon and nutmeg in a large bowl. Add the dried cranberries.

Whisk the eggs, melted butter, yogurt, vanilla and orange zest (if 
using) in a medium bowl. Stir in the shredded zucchini. Fold the 
zucchini mixture into the flour mixture until just combined.

Spread the batter in the prepared pan(s). Bake until a toothpick 
inserted into the center comes out clean, about 55 minutes for a 
standard loaf or 35 to 40 minutes for mini loaves. Cool 30 minutes in 
the pan(s) on a rack, then turn out onto the rack to cool completely.

Make the glaze: Whisk the confectioner's sugar, milk and vanilla 
seeds in a bowl. Pour over the cooled zucchini bread and let set, 15 
to 20 minutes.

Yield: one 9-by-5" loaf or three 6-by-3" mini loaves
