My Recipe Box - Orange Yogurt Loaf

May 2017 - Toronto ON

Baked an orange yogurt loaf. I thought I would freeze half but it was so good I never got a chance. Definitely a keeper!! BTW I used the no name gluten free flour from Bulk Barn and it worked like a charm.

Before I put the glaze on, straight out of the oven.






INGREDIENTS
2/3 cup butter, softened
1-1/4 cups sugar
2 large eggs
1/2 cup plain yogurt
1/2 cup orange juice
1 tablespoon grated orange zest
2-1/2 cups all-purpose flour gluten free
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
GLAZE:
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
2 to 3 teaspoons orange juice
DIRECTIONS

Combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt; add to creamed mixture.Pour into a greased 9x5-in. loaf pan. Bake at 350° for 55-65 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cover loosely with foil if top browns to quickly. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pan to wire rack to cool completely.For glaze, combine confectioners' sugar and enough orange juice to achieve desired consistency. Drizzle over cooled bread. Yield: 1 loaf.
