Preparation
Sponge Starter:
In a mixing bowl, dissolve the yeast in the water. Add flours and mix
for 5 minutes on slow speed with a dough hook. Let rise for one hour.
To make the bread:
In a bowl, dissolve the package of yeast in lukewarm water. Add the
sponge, apple cider, egg, and salt. Mix the dough 6 to 8 minutes on medium speed until fully
developed.
Add the walnuts, cranberries and orange zest and mix on slow speed
until fully incorporated. Let the dough rise to double in volume, then punch it down and
divide the dough into two even pieces.
Preheat the oven to 400°F (205°C).
Form each piece of dough into a greased pound cake pan. Let the dough
rise to its maximum volume, about double in size. Place the loaves in the oven and bake until
golden brown and a good crust is formed; approximately 25 minutes. Remove from the pan and let
cool on a rack.
