Copycat Starbucks Cranberry Bliss Bread

Starbucks is famous for their fall and holiday treats — from pumpkin loaf, to maple pecan muffins, to flavored cake pops.

We love their pumpkin loaf so much that my husband created a Gluten Free Pumpkin Bread that tastes just like the “real” thing!

With Christmas treats hitting shelves, I’ve been craving Starbucks Cranberry Bliss Bars too!

This copycat version is delicious and looks beautiful on a Christmas party table because it is in bread form, instead of little bars. Trust me, make this for your next holiday party and everyone will love it!

Just look at that fluffy sweet bread with cranberries and white chocolate chips baked right in…and on top! So much sweet and tart and creamy white chocolate deliciousness!
