Soft and fluffy easy one-proof passion fruit cranberry loaf bread, with
tangy-sweet dried cranberries for a refreshing, fruity taste.
This is a simple passion fruit cranberry loaf bread, made using the Killer Toast recipe.
I always like this recipe because I don’t need to proof twice, so I can just make the dough first, and leave it to proof in the loaf pan till about 85-90% full before baking. In between I can always do my chores, cooking or just relax for a bit.

What Ingredients Are Used For This Bread?
- Passion Fruit Juice – You can use fresh passion fruit juice by pressing out the juice, or you can do the same as me by stirring in some passion fruit freeze dried powder in water.
- Egg – You will need to combine one egg and passion fruit juice to yield total 160g liquid to be used in the recipe. Use a medium sized egg, around 55-60g.
- Milk Powder – Use the full cream milk powder for baking use, full cream type. If you don’t have milk powder on hand, it is also ok to omit it.
- Dried Cranberries – You can soak the dried cranberries briefly in warm water before using.
Do remember to chill all liquid ingredients, such as the juice, egg and butter, as bread dough proof optimally at around 23-24C.
How Should I Store The Bread?
You can store the bread in ziplock bag or bread container, and slice it just before serving. Do remember to let the loaf cool down completely before storing or slicing. This bread retains its softness for up to 2 days or so 🙂

I make this recipe. But failed. I use passion fruit syrup. Thick syrup with water. I put all in the breadmaker. Can this recipe use in the breadmaker? As I don’t have oven. Thank you?
Hi Yuli, so sorry that I missed your comment. Did you dilute the syrup with water? And you probably might need to reduce or omit the sugar, depending on how sweet the syrup is. Also, this recipe has a higher liquid content, which might not be suitable for bread machine.
