 ORANGE BREAD: Soft, with a hint of orange. Wonderful texture to the crumb.

METHOD
1. Combine 2 tsp sugar, 1/2 cup warm water, 2 14 tsp instant quick yeast
2. Into this mixture beat 2 large eggs, 1/3 cup sugar, pinch salt, 1/4 cup softened margarine or butter.

 3. Into this mixture add 2 tbsp grated orange rind, 1 cup warmed orange juice, and 2 1/2 cups flour.
 4. Beat all together to make a spongy dough.
 5. To the spongy dough add about 2 /4 cups flour till a soft dough forms. Should not be too wet or dry.
6. Let rise in a greased bowl till doubled in bulk.
 7. Divide dough into two, plop into prepared pans ( spray with veggie spray).
8. Bake at 400 degrees for about 25 minutes.
9. Melt 1 or 2 tbsp butter or margarine and brush over top of baked loaves.
10 Wonderful. Everyone will gobble it up. I froze the second loaf for later.
