My friend brought this loaf to share at our community baking session. Utterly delicious - I had 3 slices and you're right, scrapings of butter are for amateurs!! Thank you for the care you took in putting this recipe together. It's a keeper! I'm off to make a batch for my family.

This is some of the most rewarding bread I’ve ever made! Thank you for a fabulous recipe! I needed something easy that was also deeply satisfying and this fit the bill perfectly.

In pans and will bake tomorrow morning. Should have asked you this before I mixed--I used 20g of Diamond Kosher salt since it weighs about 50% less than sea salt. Was that an error on my part?

Dough is in pans. I’m off to bed with great expectations for breakfast in the morning. The orange zest in the dough was so aromatic. Can’t wait to try with copious amounts of butter and coffee.

Hi Martin! This is a beauty! I had some einkorn flour my buddy had just milled so I used that. I had trouble getting 14g of orange zest out of one orange so I zested another for a total of 8 grams. I don’t think it needs 2 oranges worth of zest - I wonder if my micro plane just doesn’t knock out as much zest? Second, I couldn’t figure out how to get that much sesame seeds to stick to the top of the bread. I forgot to put the cross into the top with my scraper before the rise, that might have been a factor. Nothing wrong with extra roasted sesame seeds. Will make this again, I love bread with this much fruit in it and this method is really easy compared to the one I was using with rye flour and 100% raisins. Thanks!

Wow! This beauty is on today's docket. (And I already have all the ingredients!) .😁However... I don't have the smaller pans. Would one regular loaf pan suffice? I'm supposing the bake time would lengthen a bit. Thanks for the recipe...can't wait for tomorrow's breakfast.❤️

This bread is choke full of flavor and so easy to make. Plus it’s healthy. It got the seal of approval from the kids too. This will be in heavy rotation at our house.

Martin, how many mini loaf pans did you use? For some reason I thought 4 but I only managed 3 and reduced each loaf to 320 g. Did I miss something? I also could not zest 14g, did 2 oranges (on the small side), and 1 meyer lemon sitting on the counter. It seemed good enough. I like waking up and just baking it. Perfect when kids come home for spring break! More recipes using lemons and oranges please.
