How to Make Whole Wheat Orange Quick Bread
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x5 inch loaf pan.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
- Add the granulated sugar, brown sugar, orange zest, and cinnamon to the dry ingredients. Mix well.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, oil, and orange juice.
- Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix. (About 75 strokes)
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread evenly.
- Sprinkle the top with the optional orange sugar topping (recipe below).
- Bake for 60-65 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Optional Orange Sugar Topping: Combine 2 tablespoons granulated sugar with 1 teaspoon orange zest.
