For a richer flavor, try using toasted oats. Simply spread the oats on a baking sheet and toast in a 350°F (175°C) oven for 5-7 minutes, or until lightly golden and fragrant.
If you don't have orange juice on hand, you can substitute with water, but the orange juice adds a lovely citrus note that complements the apricots.
Ensure your yeast is fresh for the best rise. You can test its activity by mixing it with a little warm water and sugar; it should foam up within 5-10 minutes.
Store leftover bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or freeze for longer storage.

    My family devoured this bread in one day! I used a little less sugar and it was still plenty sweet. A new favorite!

    I love the addition of oats. It gives the bread a wonderful texture and a slightly nutty taste. Will definitely make this again!

    Easy to follow and delicious! I added a handful of chopped walnuts along with the apricots for extra crunch.

  • Oren Hilpert

    This recipe is a lifesaver! My bread machine is usually hit or miss, but this loaf came out perfectly. The apricot and orange flavors are fantastic.
