How to Make Orange Streusel Loaves

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Grease and flour two 9x5x3-inch loaf pans.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 box (15.25 oz) yellow cake mix, 1 package (3.4 oz) orange pudding mix, 3 large eggs, 1 cup sour cream, and 1/2 cup vegetable oil.
  4. Using an electric mixer, beat on medium speed for 3 minutes until well combined.
  5. Pour batter evenly into the prepared loaf pans.
  6. In a medium bowl, combine 1/2 cup reserved cake mix, 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and 1/2 cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces. Use a pastry blender or your fingers to cut the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  7. Stir in 1/2 cup chopped pecans (optional).
  8. Sprinkle the streusel topping evenly over the cake batter in each pan.
  9. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  10. Let the loaves cool in the pans for 15 minutes.
  11. Run a knife or spatula around the edges of the loaves to loosen them from the pans.
  12. Invert the loaves onto a wire rack.
  13. Turn the loaves right side up and let them cool completely.
  14. While the loaves are cooling, prepare the glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together 1 cup powdered sugar with 2-3 tablespoons milk or orange juice until smooth and desired consistency is reached.
  15. Drizzle the glaze over the cooled loaves.
