ORANGE CREAM CHEESE BREAD



Orange Cream Cheese Bread image

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.

Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 pkg cream cheese, softened (8 oz)
1/2 c shortening
1 2/3 c granulated sugar
2 eggs
2 1/4 c all-purpose flour
1 tsp salt
1 Tbsp baking powder
1 c milk
1/2 c chopped walnuts
2 Tbsp grated orange peel
1/4 c orange juice

  • 3. Add eggs, beating well after each addition.
  • 4. Combine flour, baking powder, and salt.
  • 5. Add flour mixture to creamed mixture alternately with milk.
  • 6. Alternate milk and flour mixture ending with flour mixture. Mix well after each addition.

Tips:

  • Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature: Room temperature ingredients (butter, eggs, cream cheese, etc.) blend more smoothly and evenly, resulting in a well-combined and smooth batter.
  • Do not overmix the batter: Overmixing can lead to a tough and dense bread. Mix only until the ingredients are well combined, avoiding overdevelopment of the gluten in the flour.
  • Do not overcrowd the baking pan: Make sure to leave enough space between the orange slices in the baking pan to allow for proper air circulation and even baking.
  • Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This is the best way to ensure that the bread is cooked through without overbaking it.
  • Allow the bread to cool completely before serving: This will allow the flavors to develop and the bread to set properly, resulting in a more enjoyable eating experience.

Orange Cream Cheese Bread is a delightful treat that combines the zing of orange with the creamy richness of cream cheese. It's perfect for breakfast, brunch, or afternoon tea. With its moist texture, tangy flavor, and irresistible orange glaze, this bread is sure to impress your family and friends.
