I used 1 tsp each baking soda and powder because I though1/2 tsp of soda wasn't enough. I also used a bit less cinnamon because other reviews suggested it was overpowering. I think my hot oven over cooked this bread , I checked at 55 min but it is a little dry and over done. Kind of bland tasting I thought the orange concentrate would help more than it did to add flavor. Maybe I will try it again and cook it a shorter amount of time

I made this with half the cinnamon and I didn't have orange juice concentrate - so I used 2 tablespoons of homemade seedless blackberry jam instead. I used 2 1/2 cups of chunks and slices of fresh peach, and the slices turned out really nice - like little pockets of peachy goodness. Next time I will use all slices. Overall, it turned out great, except that it was slightly overcooked when I baked for the time specified - next time I will take it out 5 minutes earlier.
