You can find mini paper loaf pans at surlatable.com—they’re ready to wrap and don’t require spraying with baking spray. If you use regular mini loaf pans, be sure to spray with nonstick baking spray with flour before adding batter.
Kitchen Tip: If preparing this cranberry-pistachio bread recipe in 2 (9×5-inch) loaf pans, spray pans with nonstick baking spray with flour before adding batter.
