"Wonderful aromas permeate the house while this bread is baking.  The 
cranberries give each slice a yummy hint of sweet-tart flavor and the whole 
wheat flour adds a healthy touch to our holiday menu"... Joan Hallford, 
North Richland Hills, TX

In a bowl, combine the cranberries, brown sugar and molasses; let stand for 
1 hour.  Stir in 1 C warm water.  Add honey; let stand for 5 min.  Add the 
butter, salt, allspice, whole wheat flour, 1 C all-purpose flour and 
cranberry mixture.  Beat until smooth.  Stir in enough remaining 
all-purpose flour to form a soft dough.  Turn onto a floured surface; knead 
until smooth and elastic, about 6 - 8 min.  Place in a bowl coated with 
nonstick cooking spray, turning once to coat top.  Cover and let rise in a 
warm place until doubled, about 1 hr.

Punch dough down and turn onto a floured surface; shape into a loaf.  Place 
in a 9" x 5" x 3" loaf pan coated with nonstick cooking spray.  Cover and 
let rise until doubled, about 30 min.  Bake at 350F for 50 - 60 min or 
until golden brown.  Remove from pan to wire rack to cool.

Yield:  1 loaf (16 slices)

Very good!!  Reggie
