Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 350F and lightly coat an 8"x4" loaf pan with non-stick spray and line with parchment.

  • Continue alternating between adding some of the flour mixture and the milk to the bowl of batter. Mix until batter comes together.

  • Scrape the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Level off the batter with a spatula for an even rise.
  • Bake the load in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean. Let the loaf cool completely.
  • Make the icing by placing the icing sugar in a small mixing bowl. Whisk in a little bit of orange juice into the sugar until your desired consistency and thickness of icing has been reached. Pour over the cooled loaf and let it set before slicing.
