Lemon-Glazed Orange Loaf
from Weight Watchers All-Time Favorites
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons grated orange zest
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup fresh orange juice
1/3 cup canola oil
2 large eggs (or 4 whites or 1/2 cup egg substitute)
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
3/4 cup confectioner's sugar
1 teaspoon grated lemon zest
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1. Preheat oven to 350. Spray a 5x9" loaf pan with nonstick spray. Dust with flour and tap out the excess.
2. To make the batter, whisk together the flour, orange zest, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl; set aside. Whisk together the granulated sugar, orange juice, oil, eggs, and vanilla in medium bowl. Add the orange juice mixture to the flour mixture, stirring until well combined. Pour into the pan. Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean, 40-45 minutes. Let cool in the pan on a rack 10 minutes. Remove loaf from the pan and let cool completely on the rack.
3. To make the glaze, whisk together the confectioner's sugar and lemon zest and juice in a medium bowl until smooth. With a narrow metal spatula, spread the glaze evenly over the top of the loaf. Let stand until the glaze sets, about 10 minutes. Cut into 16 slices.

* Consider using this loaf cake for a fruit trifle. It's lighter than traditional pound cake but just as delicious. If you like, leave off the glaze.
I haven't tried this yet, but it looked interesting!
