- 2 cups (250g) all-purpose flour (spooned & leveled)
Wet Ingredients
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup freshly squeezed orange juice
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1 tablespoon orange zest
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Set your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×5-inch loaf pan to prevent sticking.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
