How to Make Chocolate Orange Bread
- Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Grease and flour a 9x5 inch loaf pan.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 1 cup all-purpose flour, ½ cup whole wheat flour, ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, ½ teaspoon salt, and 1 cup packed light brown sugar.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs.
- Add ½ cup orange juice, ½ cup vegetable oil, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and ¼ cup honey to the eggs. Whisk until well combined.
- Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Zest 1 orange and add the zest to the batter. Stir in ½ cup of your choice of add-ins (raisins, cranberries, nuts, chocolate chips, or a combination).
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and bake for 60-75 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the loaf cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
