Cranberry Cream cheese Bread

 
I think that experience is very important for creating food and dessert recipes.

Lately, I read a book about bread-making methods, and it has this example that if you had never eaten French bread before and someone told you to make French bread, it would be hard for you to imagine the texture and flavor of this kind of bread, and it will be very hard for you to create a recipe (ingredients and method) that will produce the French bread. So my conclusion is for your imagination and your skill, eating is a great thing, haha.

And this recipe comes from the bread that my sister loves to buy, ^^. 
We have to admit that when we bake at home, we will get6 pieces of the same kind of bread not 6 varieties of bread. 
But I have a little problem when I eat commercial food the chemical and artificial aromas always disturb me.  
So, if I like it, I have to make it myself.
A cranberry and walnut bread that's filled with cream cheese. If you have an English muffin pan, using it will make your bread stay flat, but you can just roll it into a ball and bake it too.
