Yield One 8-inch loaf

Number Of Ingredients 19

2 cups coarsely chopped dates (10 ounces pitted)
1/3 cup orange liqueur (recommended: Cointreau or Triple Sec)
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, at room temperature
3/4 cup light brown sugar, lightly packed
1 extra-large egg
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 tablespoon grated orange zest (2 oranges)
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1 tablespoon grated orange zest

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter the bottom of an 8 1/2 by 4 1/2 by 2 1/2-inch loaf pan. Line the bottom with parchment paper, then butter and flour the pan.
  • Combine the dates and orange liqueur in a small bowl and set aside for 30 minutes. Stir occasionally.
  • In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter and brown sugar together on medium speed for 1 minute. Scrape down the bowl. With the mixer on low, add the egg, vanilla, and orange zest. Sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and salt. With the mixer still on low, add the flour mixture alternately with the orange juice to the creamed mixture, beating only until combined. By hand, stir in the dates with their liquid, and the pecans.

  • Meanwhile, in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the cream cheese, sugar, and orange zest on medium speed until just combined.
  • Slice the bread and serve with the orange cream cheese on the side for spreading.

ORANGE CREAM CHEESE BREAD

This orange quick bread reminds us of a super-rich pound cake with a subtle orange flavor. The loaf is super moist and tender - almost has a creamy texture. Nuts add a little texture and feel free to add more if you love nutty bread. Drizzling orange juice on the top crust was our favorite part.

HONEY WALNUT CREAM CHEESE



Honey Walnut Cream Cheese image

We came up with this recipe after trying Trader Joe's® honey walnut cream cheese; this was much better since we used the orange blossom honey my mom buys from local farmers' market. She suggest toasting the walnuts. To make a sweeter version, add a tablespoon of granulated sugar while pulsing in the processor. Spread a layer on a slice of your favorite bread and enjoy! Yum!

Tips:

  • Choose ripe oranges: Using ripe oranges ensures a more flavorful and juicy bread.
  • Zest the oranges before juicing: Zesting the oranges before juicing extracts the aromatic oils from the peel, enhancing the bread's flavor.
  • Cream the butter and sugar thoroughly: Creaming the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy incorporates air into the mixture, resulting in a tender and moist bread.
  • Use fresh baking powder and baking soda: Fresh baking powder and baking soda are essential for the bread to rise properly.
  • Do not overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter can result in a tough and dense bread. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the bread until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This ensures that the bread is fully cooked through.
  • Let the bread cool completely before spreading with cream cheese: Allowing the bread to cool completely prevents the cream cheese from melting and becoming runny.
