Recipe was taken from “A Little Taste Of Texas” by Barbara C. Jones, Copyright 1990, the chapter on “Breads”, page 29. The recipe on page 29 originally was called Glazed Lemon Bread, however, in this case I changed it to Orange because at the time of deciding to make the Glazed Lemon Bread I didn’t have any lemons in. In that case everywhere it had lemon I replaced it with orange (orange extract, orange rind and orange juice).
