CRANBERRY-WALNUT BRAID

Steps:

• Stir 3 cups flour, sugar, yeast and salt in large bowl to blend. Add buttermilk, 2 eggs, melted butter and orange extract and stir vigorously until well blended. Gradually stir in enough hot water to form soft, slightly sticky dough. Transfer dough to floured work surface. Knead dough until smooth and slightly tacky but not sticky, adding more flour if necessary, about 7 minutes. Knead in dried cranberries 1/3 cup at a time; then knead in walnuts. Form dough into ball.
• Oil large bowl. Add dough to bowl, turning to coat with oil. Cover bowl with plastic wrap, then towel. Let dough rise in warm draft-free area until doubled in volume, about 1 1/2 hours.
• Lightly oil heavy large baking sheet. Punch down dough. Turn dough out onto floured surface. Divide dough into 4 equal pieces; then divide 1 dough piece into 3 equal pieces and reserve. Using palms of hands, roll out each of remaining 3 large pieces on work surface to 13-inch-long ropes. Braid ropes together. Tuck ends under and pinch together. Transfer braid to prepared baking sheet. Roll out each of reserved 3 small dough pieces to 10-inch-long ropes. Braid ropes together. Tuck ends under and pinch together. Brush large braid with some of egg glaze. Place small braid atop center of large braid. Brush small braid with some of egg glaze. Let rise uncovered in warm area until almost doubled in volume, about 1 hour 15 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 325°F. Brush loaf again with egg glaze. Bake until loaf is deep golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped on bottom, about 45 minutes. Transfer loaf to rack and cool at least 45 minutes before slicing. (Can be prepared ahead. Cool completely. Wrap tightly in foil and freeze up to 2 weeks. Uncover and thaw at room temperature.)

CRANBERRY WALNUT SANDWICH BREAD

Steps:

• Pour buttermilk and water into a small bowl and warm in microwave for 45 seconds to 1 minute (temperature should be approximately 105-110 degrees). Stir in the yeast and set aside for 5 minutes.
• Pour mixture into bowl of stand mixer and add the egg, softened butter and honey. Mix well, then add the oats, salt, baking soda and cinnamon. Mix well, then add about 3 cups of the flour one cup at a time, mixing well after each addition. Hold back about a cup of flour, to add later if needed.
• Add the dried cranberries and nuts and knead with dough hook for about 6 minutes, adding flour as needed until dough is smooth and elastic and has left the sides of the bowl.
• Place dough into an oiled bowl and let rise for 1 1/2 hours.
• Deflate and shape into a loaf. Place dough into a greased 9 x 5-inch loaf pan and let rise for 1 hour or until doubled in size. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Slash top of loaf 3 times diagonally and bake for 40-45 minutes or until golden brown. Immediately brush with the melded butter, if desired, and turn bread onto a wire rack to cool.
