Glazed Orange Bread is a super moist and delicious quick bread, that brings in memories of summer, but you can enjoy anytime. Now that Cuties are in season you can make this fresh Orange Bread and then enjoy it whenever you want! We love quick breads, such as this Copycat Starbucks Lemon Loaf, Best Banana Bread, or Cranberry Lemon Loaf.

I have to say, my two boys are OBSESSED with mandarin oranges. They can eat several at a time, and they love them in pretty much everything. When I told Austin that I wanted to make a sweet glazed orange bread using mandarin oranges, he was totally dying to help and try it!

ingredients and steps to make the bread

How to make Orange Bread:

**scroll down for full ingredients list and printable directions**

  • Preheat the oven and spray a load pan with nonstick spray.
  • In a large bowl, mix the dry ingredients, and then in a small bowl mix the the Greek yogurt yogurt, 1 cup of sugar, eggs, zest, and vanilla extract.
  • Add the wet ingredients into the dry; stirring to combine.  Then add in coconut oil and mix with a whisk or fork until the batter is smooth and totally combined (takes a bit to incorporate the oil).
  • Pour into the loaf pan and bake. Remove from oven, place the pan on a wire rack and allow to cool.

How to make the orange topping:

  • In a small saucepan over medium/high heat, add ¼ cup sugar and ⅓ cup orange juice. Bring to a boil and let simmer for 1 minute, whisking until the sugar is dissolved. 
  • Remove the bread from the loaf pan, and set on a wire rack positioned over a baking sheet. Pour the orange topping/juice over the top of the bread, soaking it liberally. Allow the bread to cool for 20 minutes.

Slice the glazed orange bread and enjoy with coffee, a glass of orange juice, or hot cocoa! I also love serving it alongside Honey Lime Fruit Salad!

      Do you have to use coconut oil or can you replace it with canola or vegetable oil?

    This sounds wonderful. If I can’t get mandarin oranges, are regular naval oranges okay to use?
    Also, I’ve never used coconut oil before. Do I measure the coconut oil before or after melting it?

      Yes you can use naval oranges as well! I would melt the coconut oil, but feel free to use your favorite baking oil in place of it as well.
