Found this in a Gooseberry Patch pamphlet sent to me featuring recipes using raisins. I used dried cranberries when I made it instead of raisins. I think any dried fruit would work well, like dried cherries or pineapple. I warmed my slices and used for breakfast with a spread of peanut butter. I used the glaze but can see this being good without it too. The orange flavor added a nice depth to the bread and balanced out the cranberries I used. This can also be made into three 5x3" mini loaf pans.

Time 55m

Yield 1 loaf, 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup plain yogurt (I used low-fat)
1/3 cup canola oil
2 eggs, beaten
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon orange zest
6 ounces raisins (I used dried cranberries)
3/4 cup walnuts (optional or use your favorite nut)
3/4 cup powdered sugar
2 -3 tablespoons orange juice

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 and grease a 9x5" loaf pan (can also fit into three 5x3" mini pans).
  • Combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt and then set aside.
  • Stir together sugar, yogurt, oil, eggs, vanilla and zest.
  • Add flour mixture to wet ingredients and stir gently until well mixed (don't over mix or the loaf will be dry). Stir in dried fruit and nuts gently.
  • Pour batter into pan and bake for 45-50 minutes until pick comes out clean (if using mini pans bake 25-30 minutes).
  • Cool on wire rack 10 minutes before turning out.
  • Stir together the ingredients for the glaze - watching the amount of orange juice to make it a nice pourable glaze and not too runny.
  • Drizzle over cooled loaf.

This loaf was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still good. I think I would reduce the amount of sugar next time. The glaze was a bit too thick and gooey, so I would also thin it out next time.

I was a bit skeptical about this recipe at first, but I'm so glad I tried it! The loaf turned out perfectly and was a hit with my family. The glaze really made the loaf, and I loved the addition of cranberries and raisins.
