Place rack in middle of the oven. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter and flour five 5 3/4- by 2 1/4-inch loaf pans.
-
Sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Cream the butter and sugar in a large bowl.
-
Beat in the orange zest and eggs, 1 at a time.
-
Add the orange juice and milk and beat until mixed thoroughly. It will appear curdled.
-
Add the flour mixture and beat until it is just moistened.
-
Stir in the apricots, walnuts, and cranberries.
-
Pour the batter into the pans. Bake for 45 minutes. Test for doneness with a toothpick - it should come out clean. Remove the bread from the pans, transfer to a wire rack, and let them cool on their sides.
