My wife and kids think this is a great bread. We really enjoy the flavor. I experimented and substituted honey for the sugar. It was great! The conversion for the yeast is .25 oz. = 2-1/4 tsp.
I really liked this. Made some changes...used 1 1/4 cups orange juice (no water) fresh squeezed; used canola oil instead of margarine; used 1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour and 2 cups all-purpose flour; and 1/4 cup honey instead of sugar.
There was no light orange color -- but I suspect the whole wheat flour masked it. Lightly tangy, a hint of orange, tender...it made the best french toast I've ever had.
Thanks for the recipe!
I love to make this bread in the evening and use it the next day for french toast. Try serving it toasted and topped with honey or apple butter. It's wonderful!
Delicious! Makes the whole house smell like fresh oranges. The bread has a delicious flavor.
This recipe made a very good bread. I took some to work and it was a real hit! I sliced it and put a cinnamon roll frosting (orange flavor) on it. It's great at breakfast too. I gave it 4 cards on the premise that nothing is perfect.
Delicious but not much on orange flavor.
This bread did not have much flavor.
This recipe produces a wonderful loaf of Orange Bread. I recommend it highly.
Most people who bake bread don't purchase yeast in the small packages as it is so much more costly. The measurement should include fast rising and reg yeast in teaspoons. Didn't really care for the flavor, though
