Glazed Orange Tahini Bread

• FOR THE BREAD:
• 3 Tablespoons Orange Zest
• 1/2 cups Granulated Sugar
• 1-1/2 cup All-purpose Flour
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
• 1/2 teaspoons Baking Soda
• 1/2 cups Butter, Melted
• 2 whole Eggs
• 1/2 teaspoons Vanilla Extract
• 1/4 cups Orange Juice
• 1/4 cups Plain, Non-fat Greek Yogurt
• 1/2 cups Tahini
• FOR THE GLAZE:
• 1 cup Powdered Sugar
• 2 Tablespoons Orange Juice
• 1 Tablespoon Tahini

1. Preheat oven to 350u0b0F. Grease a 9x5 loaf pan.
2. In a large bowl, rub together orange zest and sugar using the back of a spoon or your fingers until fragrant. Add in flour, salt, baking powder, and baking soda. Stir until combined and set aside.
3. In a medium bowl, whisk together the remaining ingredients until smooth. Pour wet ingredients slowly into dry. Whisk until just combined, being careful not to over-mix.
4. Pour batter into loaf pan and bake for 50 minutes or until a toothpick comes out with crumbs. Let bread cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack to cool completely.
5. For the glaze, whisk powdered sugar, orange juice, and tahini together. Pour over bread. Slice, serve, and enjoy!
6. Notes:
7. You can (probably) substitute the Greek yogurt for milk (dairy or nut) or buttermilk; however, I didn't try this so I don't know with 100% certainty.
8. These would work well as muffins, too! Just decrease baking time to 25-30 minutes.
9. You can add glaze as soon as it is slightly cooled. I baked the bread at night and then added the glaze the next morning.
