A great tasting bread, for sure, & I must say, "Thanks to your Grandmother, for the recipe!" We really enjoyed the flavor combo of orange & raisin, & although I'd intended on sharing this with my son & DIL, that didn't happen ~ The two of us ate it all! Definitely a keeper of a recipe! Thanks for sharing it! [Made & reviewed for one of my adopted chefs in this Spring's round of Pick A Chef]
