This needed more orange flavor. I added fresh oranges and extra orange zest, still not enough flavor. I was expecting more of a sweet cake, but it was somewhat bland.

Thanks for the fantastic recipe for Orange Loaf, Carol~!! I agree that using butter is better for bringing out the orange taste. Besides, I have added an extra of 2T olive oil, as suggested by a...
