I've been using this website for a few years now, and this is the first time i was really compelled to rate a recipe. this bread turned out delicious!! i needed a recipe to use up some yogurt i had, and im glad i chose this. very easy to make, by the time the batter was being poured it looked good! i used a little more than the suggested amount of yogurt, and added slivered almonds to the mix-what a treat! i also poured the glaze on as soon as the bread came out of the oven. the whole house loved it-will def. make again! yogurt is quickly becoming my favorite addition to baked goods.

Wow, this made a great little cupcake. I halved the recipe & made about 7 of them. The combo of yogurt and butter makes them really moist. I'm not big on glazes, so I made a buttercream/orange frosting. Yum!

Very tasty bread, but I had trouble keeping it in a 9X5X3 inch bread pan. I think next time I'll make it as cupcakes.

I used brown sugar, 5-cereal-flour and red orange that gave this bread a brownish colour. Also, I added some grated coconut and it turned out perfectly ;-)

Great recipe, little more like pound cake and that is a good thing...will be making this again. Little change w/ the glaze I added a little lemon zest to it. I full lemon version sounds good....

This is one of the best sweet breads on this site - actually I consider it a cake because it is so rich tasting and that is how I have it filed. If you use all butter it also makes it even better.

I followed the recipe exactly and while the bread had the perfect texture and moistness, I felt it was lacking more of the orange flavor. Next time I'll make it, I think I'll add some frozen orange juice concentrate in place of the orange juice. It was still delicious aside from that. :)

Delicious, wonderful texture. I didn't have yoghurt so I used buttermilk which was perfect. I can imagine variarions like muffins, streussel coffee cake.

I like the orangey taste of this. But I do think that 1 1/4 cups sugar is too sweet. I had used slightly less than 1 cup sugar, and I still think it is too sweet... but the citrus taste is very refreshing! Thanks for the recipe.
