   In a separate small mixing bowl, toss the fresh cranberries with 2 tablespoons of flour and set aside.

3. 3

   Preheat your oven to 350°F. Line the size of a 9 inch springform pan with parchment paper and spray all over with baking spray.

4. 4

   In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the flour baking powder, salt, baking soda, and cinnamon.

5. 5

   In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter on medium-high (6-8 on a stand mixer) for 2 to 3 minutes until light and creamy. Add the sugar and beat an additional 2 to 3 minutes until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs and vanilla extract on medium. Lastly, mix in the sour cream on medium.
