Recipe - Fresh Orange Bread

One fourth cup Butter
1 cup Honey
1 Egg
1 One half tablespoon Grated orange rind
2 One half cup Sifted flour
2 One half teaspoon Baking powder
1 teaspoon Salt
Three fourths cup Fresh orange juice
Three fourths cup Finely chopped walnuts

Cream butter, continue creaming while adding honey in a fine stream. Add
egg and beat well, then add orange peel. Sift flour once, measure, add
baking powder and salt and sift together again. Add flour alternately with
orange juice, a small amount at a time to first mixture, beating after each
addition until smooth. Stir in nuts, blend well. Pour into 9 x 5 x 3" lined
with waxed paper, and greased, loaf pan.

Bake 1 hour at 325 (slow) degrees or until done. Let cool in pan 10
minutes. Turn out of pan, let stand until cold. Wrap in waxed paper or
aluminum foil. Store overnight to blend flavors and for easy slicing. Makes
1 loaf. This bread is delicious, although it is hard not to cut into it
until the next day!
