\ud83d\udee0\ufe0f Preparation
I. Preparing the Dough
Preparation: Preheat the oven to $175^\\circ\\text{C}$ (top and bottom baking). Grease and flour a loaf or oblong loaf pan ($25 \\times 12 \\text{ cm}$).
Dry ingredients: In a large bowl, mix together the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt.
Wet ingredients: In another bowl, mix together the eggs, oil, orange juice, grated orange zest and vanilla extract.
Assembly: Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir with a wooden spoon or spatula until just combined. Do not overmix or the dough will be tough!
Baking: Pour the dough into the pan and bake for $50 \\text{ \u2013 } 60 \\text{ minutes}$. Test with a skewer to see if the center is cooked through.
II. Making the Syrup
Cooking: While the dough is baking, make the syrup. In a small saucepan, combine the orange juice and sugar.
Thickening: Bring to a boil, then simmer over low heat for about $3 \\text{ minutes}$ until the sugar dissolves and the syrup thickens slightly. Remove from heat and keep warm.
III. Juicing
Punching: Remove the finished, warm bread from the oven. Leave it in the tin and prick the top with a skewer or fork.
Drizzle: Slowly pour the warm orange syrup over the top of the dough in several batches, making sure to soak it all up.
Cool: Let the bread cool completely in the tin before carefully turning it out. During this time, the syrup will fully set, creating a moist, juicy texture.
Extra tip (Orange Glaze): If you want to glaze it, mix $100 \\text{ g}$ powdered sugar with 2-3 tablespoons of fresh orange juice and spread it on the completely cooled bread.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
