Very moist. Kitchen smells wonderful. The orange and cloves are very powerful and kind of drown out the pumpkin flavor. To my husband it tastes like potpourri, so I won't be making it that often. But my 4 and 2 year-old kids and I enjoyed it. A great gift bread for a friend who enjoys orange flavor. Beautiful when sliced. (I omitted nuts and it was fine).

It's not Thanksgiving in our house unless I have a few loaves of this bread! I've made it for many years & everyone loves it! Simply the best!

This cake is delicious, moist and very fragrant thanks to the orange. Do not peel the orange – use the whole thing, it really makes this cake. The pumpkin flavor is very minimal (it does give the cake great color), so if your guests do not like pumpkin, they won’t even notice. This is very easy to make, so easy that my husband (who never baked before) made this under my light supervision. He loved the way it came out and the fact that he could throw the whole orange into it. Try this, you will not regret.

Had a very spicy kick to it. I didn't add the raisins or nuts. Instead, I used a simple icing on top (about 1/2 a cup of pwdrd sugar with about a tsp. of oj). Nobody in my house liked it except my husband, which is really weird because he is NOT a bread eater! I liked it with my coffee this morning and the taste grew on me so I will bump up to 4 stars (: Made a very beautiful loaf that held up well when sliced and was very moist, I really did like the texture. Thanks for the post!

This bread was too sweet, too much cloves, slightly bitter from all the orange peel. I certainly won't make it again.

Tried this for Thanksgiving and it's definitely a keeper. Moist and delicious without butter or spread of any kind. I'll be making it again.

AMAZING! Giving it 5 stars because it was so tasty, I used fresh pumpkin puree that I had on hand in the freezer for this, delicious! The only thing I might possibly change is cutting it down to a half of an orange. as the taste of the orange was a little overpowering. Maybe I would not include the entire peel and rind of it, just the orange slices themselves. I used sunflower seeds instead of nuts, mmmm mmmmmmmm good! Thanks for the great recipe. :)

Great tasting Orange loaf. I would have to say that the Pumpkin taste gets a little lost in this but it is still so full of flavor and delicious that it definitely deserves 5 stars hands down. I didn't use raisins because of my kids but in my opinion that would have been great too. I would recommend baking it longer because towards the bottom it was still a little uncooked. A keeper and great any time of the year though.

I didn't care for this very much, but I think it was just personal prefrence. I might make again, but I would just use the inside of the orange and zest it. The orange peices were a little too hard for my taste. But otherwise it would have been very good.

Yum! I used a blender to mash the orange and added the 1/3 cup of water to help it along - that seemed to work for me.

This is the ultimate pumpkin bread! Everyone who sampled it was won over on first taste! The combination of flavors is genius - don't change a thing the first time you make it. The spices are perfectly balanced - I'm not crazy about cloves, but follow the recipe and you will see what I mean... And always bake an item until it is done - ovens can vary so much that it is usually not possible to say exactly how many minutes to bake something. Learn how to test by touch and using a cake tester, as well as by how the sides shrink from the pan, and you will find the perfect time for your oven. You MUST try the loaf!

This is an extraordinary bread. The first time I made it I grated the outer orange peel and then put in the orange sections thinking if I used the whole orange it would be too bitter. The next time I followed the directions using the whole orange and the difference was remarkable. So follow the directions! I did try different nuts as I had hazelnuts on hand and I prefer them to the walnuts. I also used craisins because I had them and thought they would go well with the orange. I used fresh cooked squash instead of canned and I had to eliminate the water because my squash was a bit watery- so beware if you go that route. This is a wonderful recipe- my husband and I eat it for breakfast, afternoon and late evening snack. Can't get enough. Thanks so much for the recipe.

This was delicious. I made it just as it was written and I won't change a thing in the future. I might mix up the type of nuts or change the raisins to dates just to try it, but it was delicious as written!

Amazing bread, definitely puts you in the holiday mood. Mine turned out very heavy and moist. Might have been because I used 3 small satsumas instead of 1 lg orange and there's was too much juice that way. I substituted craisins for nuts since my son has a nut allergy. Recipe made too much for my loaf pan. Next time I'll put some into muffin tins.
