Cranberry Bread

This is seriously the BEST cranberry bread I have ever had. It is out of this world! From the delicious crumb, to the plump, juicy cranberries, to the fantastic streusel topping... I don't even know where to start! I made this bread on Monday and it was gone by Tuesday afternoon. I had to make another loaf this morning because it is just too good!

Enjoy!
