Ingredients
Preparation
Prepare the Loaf
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line a 9x5-inch loaf pan.
In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
In a large bowl, beat butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
Mix in yogurt, orange juice, orange zest, and vanilla extract.
Gradually fold in the dry ingredients until just combined.
Bake
Pour batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
Bake for 50–55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the loaf to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.
Add Glaze
Mix powdered sugar with orange juice to make a smooth glaze.
Drizzle over the warm loaf, letting it soak slightly into the top.
Allow the glaze to set for 10–15 minutes before slicing.
