• Carefully fold in flour mixture, 1/3 of it at a time.
• Carefully fold in cranberries and orange zest (batter should be very thick - when I made it it was thick enough to keep the cranberries in suspension and they did not sink to the bottom during baking - see photos).
• Pour batter evenly into pan.
• Bake for 40 minutes, or until cake is light golden brown and springs back when lightly touched.
• Invert pan over the top of a thin necked bottle and allow to cool completely (this prevents decompression while it is cooling).
