TWD/DAC: Mix-It-Up Citrus Loaf Cake

 

 


Lucky quilt group! 

For this month's meeting, I brought Dorie's Mix-It-Up Citrus Loaf Cake.  It was well received, and there wasn't much left to bring home.

I used a blend of citrus:  limes, lemons, and oranges.  The limes and lemons came from my backyard trees; the oranges from my biweekly produce box, since my orange tree is only in the blooming stage.  I always love being able to use my citrus crops.  I did have to bake the cake for an extra ten minutes.

For the glaze, I heated and strained some apricot jam.


 

This is an easy cake to make and works with any combination of citrus fruits.

Stop by Tuesdays with Dorie website to see which February recipe the other bakers made.

OOOh love that you used a variety of citrus fruits ! Your cake has a gorgeous crack breaking along the top - which I'm sure added lovely crispyness to the moist slices. Great job !

I am so happy your citrus trees have survived! Our beautiful producing orange tree got that awful disease going around. I miss being able to go out and pick my oranges! Your loaf looks delicious...something seemed off with mine but onto the next recipe! (Kim)
