Amazing Orange Loaf Cake
I love a good loaf cake and my amazing orange loaf cake is no exception! What a welcome burst of orange flavoured sunshine this was in the middle of a seriously cold winter here. Sometimes you just have to bake up something that cheers you up with the mere taste of it – and that’s what this orange bread did.
Oranges are cheap, cheerful and plentiful this time of year, which is exactly why we should be cooking and baking with them. I avoided oranges for a few years like most children of the 80’s did, as when we grew up we had limited choices for our lunches during the winter. Apples and oranges. That was it when I was growing up as a kid however now we have access to so many fruits during the winter thanks to shipping expansions and new ways of growing and storing fruit. You also might have eaten this orange loaf cake when you were a kid since lemons were probably pretty expensive for our moms to buy in the middle of winter. Here’s a good post about fruit in the winter and has some great tips about oranges as well for those that want to learn more.
