Tips:

  • Use fresh oranges for the best flavor. If you don't have fresh oranges, you can use orange juice concentrate, but the flavor will be less intense.
  • Be sure to finely grate the orange zest. This will release the most flavor from the orange.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the bread tough.
  • Let the bread cool completely before slicing it. This will help the bread hold its shape.

Conclusion:

This orange raisin bread is a delicious and easy-to-make quick bread recipe. It's perfect for breakfast, brunch, or a snack. The bread is moist and flavorful, with a hint of orange and a chewy texture from the raisins. It's also a great way to use up any leftover oranges you have on hand.
