Vanilla Bean Orange Loaf Bread and Weekly Recap

January 5, 2013 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 21 Comments

Hello Friends,

You may have noticed a different look to my blog today.  I was having major issues with my last blog theme, so I spent last night trying to fix it and I am not technical, at all!   The only option I had, was to change my blog platform (not fun).  Currently this is now a work in progress, so please forgive the mess.  I do plan on trying to fix my blog to look pretty, but during my free time.  I want to do some cooking this weekend and recipes come first!  If anyone knows of a good blog designer please let me know.   Now for today’s recipe.   Today I have for you, what I call the traveling bread!  This bread has had its photos in the kitchen, outside and finally the front room.  I just couldn’t find a location that was good enough.  It makes me crazy not having my perfect spot, which isn’t exactly perfect but seems to work.

Vanilla Bean Orange Loaf Bread with Orange Glaze

This is my Vanilla Bean Orange Loaf Bread!  This bread is kind of a combination of a typical quick bread and a pound cake.  I found it to be a little more firm then quick bread and the texture reminds me of pound cake, which is A-OK in my book!!  It has a wonderful orange flavor and I love the little specks of vanilla bean.  This was the first time I ever baked using a real vanilla bean!  I’m such a vanilla freak, I also added vanilla extract to the bread!  In my opinion you can’t have too much vanilla!  So yummy!

Vanilla Bean Orange Loaf Bread with Orange Glaze


I wanted the bread to have a little more omph than plain orange flavored bread, so I decided to put on a sweet sugar glaze over the top.  I asked my Husband what kind of glaze he wanted and he opted for orange.  I added a little splash of orange extract to powdered sugar, a pinch of milk and whisked together an oh so sweet glaze.  It’s finger licking good!  Yes I licked some of the glaze.  Don’t judge me, you know you do the same!

  4. In a separate bowl add flours, baking powder, baking soda sand salt. Mix together.
  5. Make a well in the center of the flour mixture and slowly incorporate the yogurt mixture, be careful not to over mix.

To scrape the vanilla bean; cut the bean down the middle, carefully pull the sides apart and take the back of your knife to scrape out the vanilla paste. You can throw your scraped bean in sugar for a vanilla sugar taste.

    Hi Jen! Do you think you could substitute applesauce for the orange juice?

      Hi Libby, the orange juice is for the orange flavor, but you could sub the orange juice for applesauce. It should still taste great. Maybe add a pinch more orange extract.

    Jennifer – I actually like the look of your blog today. The white background has a clean look and it came up quickly. Previously, the page took longer to pull up than other blogs, but this one came up right away.
    Thanks for all you do. I’ve gotten some of my favorite healthy/skinny recipes from you and have found favorite products that I wouldn’t have otherwise known about.

    Hi Jennifer, just discovered your blog today. Love the look of this recipe 🙂 Baking with actual vanilla is still something I’ve yet to do (I’m lazy and use extract!), however I think I may invest in some of the real stuff and use the pods to make vanilla sugar 🙂

      This was actually the first recipe that I ever used vanilla bean in. I have a ton of beans but never used them. It’s kind of made me feel like a chef. 🙂

      Thanks for letting me know about the page view. The calories are with NuNaturals, but I updated it with sugar. It’s only 9.9 grams and the calories went up a pinch, but still good, especially for a sweet quick bread.

Happy Tuesday! I was outside early evening yesterd Happy Tuesday! I was outside early evening yesterday taking pictures of flowers and I felt a shadow flying around me. I looked up and there a Monarch butterfly. 
🦋
I don’t see Monarchs very much, I was delighted when I saw this orange beauty flying around. It landed on a Zinnia before it took a rest on my Butterfly Bush. Isn’t it beautiful? It made my day. It’s the small things.
🦋
I highly recommend a Butterfly Bush in your garden. The flowers come in a range of colors from white, pink to purples. They do well in zones 5-9. The flowers smell amazing and bloom all season. They are also a great butterfly attractor and fairly easy to grow.
🦋
Do you get butterflies in your garden?

One of the things I added was my new bedding that I got from @lushdecorhome. Let me tell you, it is so luxurious. This is the 3 piece Belgian Flax Linen Rich Cotton Blend Bedspread. It is so soft and gets softer with each wash. 
💕
I have a tall bed and the ruffles just reaches the floor. The bedding is filled with cotton that gives the bedspread such a comfy feel. The bedspread is perfect for the summer, as it is lightweight, but warm enough to keep you cozy in the winter. The set comes with two pillow shams and the bedspread. It also comes in 4 colors. 
💕
I love my new bedding, it’s so feminine and simply beautiful. I couldn’t be happier. Swipe the photo to see how happy Sully is on the bedding.

Hi Everyone! I shared the reel to my Summertime ta Hi Everyone! I shared the reel to my Summertime tablescape with @JCPenney + #AllAtJCP + #sponsored +#ShoppingIsBack but you know how I love still photos better. I think you can really see the details of the decor.

💛

I am loving how simple, fresh and light my tablescape feels. It’s the perfect look I was going for. When the idea came for creating a tablescape, I was unclear of what direction I was going for until I shopped at JCPenney. I walked around the decor department and was completely inspired. They had so many styles and colors that would inspire you too.

💛

I saved a highlight of my shopping trip to JCPenney. You must check it out. I’ll be honest, I was blown away by the styles, quality and prices of there store. I will be shopping there quite frequently and you know I will take you along my journey.

💛

What is the style of your home?

💛

PS. Everything on my table is from JCPenney and it is the Linden Street Collection.

My inspiration was my new pillows that I got from @downlitebedding. The name of the pillow says it all “Ahhhhhmazing™ down alternative pillow” and they are amazing.
🐾
The pillows are so soft, plush and are hypoallergenic. They are easily molded so you position your neck, head and arms. The pillows are also washable and OEKO-TEX® Certified Textiles Are Certified Free Of Harmful Chemicals. 
🐾
I’ll be honest, Downlite Bedding are the only pillows that I sleep with. They are fabulous and will last for years. I highly recommend them. They won’t disappoint you. Downlite Bedding was nice enough to give my followers a 20% off discount code to there shop: DYGEN20.

Hello! I have to tell you that I love summer. It’s my favorite season. I love the sun, hot weather, shirts and flip flops. I could just spend all day outside.
🌻
One of my favorite things to do in the summer besides gardening is going to the Farmers Market. There is something about the atmosphere with people walking around with bags in hand, the smell of kettle corn and everyone is so happy. 
🌻
Besides the atmosphere, you can’t beat the freshly grown produce. It’s mind blowing how different it tastes, then what you get in the store. You almost forget what a strawberry is suppose to taste like until have it at the Farmers Market. Plus you are supporting your community. It’s a good feeling all around. 
🌻
I highly recommend going to the Farmers Market and pick up so corn. Soooooo good!! Stock up on your fruits and veggies and freeze it for winter.

I’m sharing with you my last photo of my peonies. I’m so sad that they didn’t last. I got about 6 days from them. I guess that’s means I need to go to Trader Joe’s and get more before peony season is over.

Do you have any summer vacation scheduled this year?

This weekend I finally made it to the Farmers Market and I picked up these amazing sunflowers. They are such a happy flower. 
🌻
When I got them, I couldn’t resist doing a flowers in the sink photo. I haven’t done one of these since Fall. Now I may have to go back to the Farmers Market next weekend because they had so many flowers and most were only $4.00 a bundle. 
🌻
Do you you like to go to the Farmers Market?
