Equipment

  • 5"x9" loaf pan

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 2 tsp ground cardamom
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup light brown sugar, packed
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup plain dairy free yogurt
  • zest of 1 blood orange

Blood Orange Glaze

  • juice of 1 blood orange
  • 1 1/4 cups confectioners sugar

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Line loaf pan with parchment paper or spray with non-stick cooking spray. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and cardamom. Sift all ingredients if possible.
  • In a medium sized bowl, whisk eggs with oil, both sugars, vanilla extract, yogurt, and blood orange zest. Pour these wet ingredients into your bowl of dry ingredients and combine well with a spatula. Pour into prepared loaf pan. Bake for 45-50 minutes.
  • Let bread cool in pan for ten minutes before removing and placing onto a cooling rack. Now is when you'll want to make your blood orange glaze.

Blood Orange Glaze

  • In a medium sized bowl, whisk together confectioners sugar with juice from 1 blood orange. Feel free to add more sugar if you'd like a thicker glaze. Pour over loaf and enjoy!

To keep bread fresh and retain moisture, store at room temperature and keep wrapped in plastic wrap.
