For the Glaze:
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 2-3 tablespoons fresh orange juice
- Zest of 1 orange (optional, for garnish)
Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Preheat and Prep
Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a standard loaf pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
2. Mix the Dry Ingredients
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
3. Cream the Butter and Sugar
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy. This should take about 2-3 minutes.
4. Add the Wet Ingredients
Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Then, stir in the orange juice, orange zest, yogurt (or sour cream), and vanilla extract until well combined.
