The reviewer gave this recipe 4 stars. This recipe averages a 4.53 star rating.
Reviewed: Jun. 16, 2008
Let me qualify my 4-star rating--for taste and texture, this bread gets FIVE STARS! It was wonderful--sweet and tangy and moist. However, fair warning, I made the recipe as is and there was so much batter that it spilled over the single loaf pan that the directions specify. Next time, I will either make 2 smaller loaves OR bake it for less time in an 8 x 8 pan. That warning aside, I LOVED this bread (more like cake, really), and I am looking forward to trying variations--lemon/blueberry maybe??

My kids & I have almost finished the whole loaf it is sooo good! It's texture is like a cake. The only change I made was I used vanilla yogurt instead of plain - it was what I had. Great flavor, great texture - a keeper. Thanks for sharing this recipe.

After reviewing all of the recipe's for orange bread I chose this one, and was a little disappointed. The orange taste is so subtle you can hardly tell what kind of bread this is.

Wow! This was great, and so moist! We ate it without the glaze. I substituted soy yogurt for the yogurt, and for the butter, 1/3c vegan butter + 1/3c shortening.

Very good- I just think it calls for way too much butter. I doubled the recipe but didn't double the butter. I didn't have enough orange peel so I added some orange extract. I used vanilla yogurt and decreased the sugar. I agree with some reviewers who say it is almost like a cake. The glaze makes it really good.

Very nice sweet bread! I agree with reviewer who said this is a cross b/ a quick bread and a cake. I used lemon zest in lieu of orange because that's what I had...I think the glaze really makes the cake! I reduced the sugar a bit and the glaze really added a tangy/sweet combo that I thought was delicious. Also---baked mine in a 9 X 13 pan and it was done in 40 min.

Mmmmmmmm good! I didn't make glaze, reduced sugar to 1 cup, used only 1 tsp baking powder and 1/3 cup margarine and it was awesome! I can't imagine using double the margarine... itll turn out as an oily cake. Yes, it was a cake, suprisingly soft and tender. I think I'll use cake flour next time to see how it'll turn out.

This was pretty good. It's moist and easy as can be -- sort of a cross between a cake and a quick bread. I agree it doesn't need the glaze, although I used a bit. I think the crumb would have finer with only one leavener. If I make this again, it'll be with just baking powder. I can taste the baking soda.

Oh, MY MY MY... This is delectable! Followed recipe exact (well, ok... not 100% exact since I only had 1/2 cup margarine softened by the time I was ready to make this) Didn't matter as the bread came out beautifully. Really nice recipe; thank you for posting it!

OMG!!! This is absolutely amazing!! Right now my 3yr old is tapping my back saying "Mommy,can I have more cake". I made with fresh squeezed OJ, from the zested orange. I baked in a ruffly bundt pan and it is beautiful as well as sinfully delish!! I hope it makes it 'till my hubby gets home from work ;)

Buttery and delicious with a hint of orange. I baked mine in 2 smaller loaf pans for about 40-45 minutes and doubled the glaze, to which I added a teaspoon of Cointreau ;-) I'm not a fan of orange peel, so I added 1/4 teaspoon of orange extract and will add more next time. This one will go into my favorites folder!

Yummy! This bread was so good and moist. Didn't even need the glaze, it had enough sweetness on its own!
