Cranberry Orange Pull Apart Bread is a beautiful and delicious dessert for any occasion! Rhodes Bread makes it easy to throw together and perfect every time.

This post is a collaboration with Rhodes Bread. I received compensation, but all opinions are my own.

Who loves throwing a good party for the holidays?? I sure do! I learned a long time ago that trying to make everything yourself or make everything from scratch for a holiday party is just crazy.

It takes the focus of the party away from spending time with those you love because you end up being in the kitchen the whole time. Nobody wants that!

So, how do I throw a party with amazing food but still get to spend time with my guests?? Here are my tips!

Tips for Hosting a Party

  • Plan ahead! Make sure you know all the details of your party in advance, at least a week in advance. How many people? Meal or just appetizers and finger food? Time of the party? Your schedule leading up to the party? Plan it all out in advance!
  • Prepare your food ahead of time. This could mean getting something ready to bake, having it already cooked, picking up something you’re buying the night before, etc.
  • Don’t make everything from scratch. Everyone loves homemade food, but do you know what they love more? Actually seeing you at the party!! Plan on making one thing, assembling one thing, and buying one thing.
  • Use Rhodes Bread Frozen Rolls or Bread Dough in your holiday party prep!! They seriously taste amazing and make it so easy to deliver fantastic baked goods with minimal effort on your part. Perfect for a party!

Now that you know my awesome tips for throwing a killer holiday party, let’s talk recipes! I teamed up with Rhodes Bread to bring you this amazing pull apart bread recipe.

How to Make Cranberry Orange Pull Apart Bread

With Rhodes Bread, it’s super easy!

  1. Thaw the Rhodes Bread until soft and room temperature.
  2. Roll out the bread into about an 8×18 rectangle.
  3. Melt the butter and drizzle it over the top of the rolled out dough.
  4. Sprinkle the brown and white sugar over the top.
  5. Sprinkle the cinnamon, orange zest, and dried cranberries evenly over the dough.
  6. Slice the dough into quarters by making a vertical and horizontal cut.
  7. Stack the quarters on top of each other.
  8. Cut the stack into quarters.
  9. Line the cut quarters up in a greased loaf pan.
  10. Let rise until doubled.
  11. Bake until golden brown and then drizzle with the orange glaze!

See, I told you it was easy! I love the pairing of orange cranberries at the holidays, but this recipe really sends the flavors over the edge. The orange glaze finishes off the bread beautifully with a final punch of orange flavor.

My other favorite thing about this bread is how beautiful it looks! Talk about a showstopper – this bread is sure to be a crowd favorite. The colors are gorgeous, and the layering of the bread makes for an elegant look.

I love using Rhodes Bread when making dishes like this because it saves me so much time! It’s also a great option if you are new baking yeast bread and just want to get your feet wet. This is a great introduction with a guaranteed amazing result!
