Notes

You can make this cake over the weekend and enjoy it all week long!
Freeze it, the orange juice loaf cake will last even longer.
Pro Tip: I like to make two batches. One for the family to enjoy throughout the week and the other for us to feast on later.
To freeze this loaf cake, let it cool completely and wrap it in wax paper, place it in a ziplock freezer bag and stash a loaf in the freezer to enjoy later! This orange loaf cake best recipe tastes divine with fresh coffee. 😊
