Orange Bread With Dates

Delicious & moist. Brought some in for my colleagues at work who enjoyed it equally as much as I.

I made the glaze for another bread recipe, it's swesome. I will try the bread next, I love oranges and dates.

This is a really delightful combination of the bright orange flavor with dates and nuts. Loved it - easy and delicious ! This recipe will be perfect for mini loaves for gifts.

This bread was a delicious way to used up left-over dates. It made a great hand-held breakfast durng a hectic week. My boyfriend also loved it as a dessert bread.

Outstanding bread!! I admit that I didn't add dates but it came out amazing anyway. I made a full loaf of this for my father in-law's birthday and two mini loaves (you know, just to test) and they were barely out of the oven before I had to have a slice. I gave a piece to my husband and he ended up eating the rest of it! He said it was just like cake. Moist, rich, very flavorful. This would be good with candied ginger (but I need to try it with the dates, too!) I love the glaze, it's very much like candied orange peel (which would also be a gread add-in.) The only issue I had was that the glaze was still a bit gritty - maybe slowly heating to fully dissolve the sugar would avoid this - but that in no way detracted from the taste and the five star rating. Truly exceptional bread! This will indeed be a family staple.
