This loaf has a nice combination of almond and orange flavour. I sprinkled some flaked almonds on top for crunch.
Love this type of cake with my evening tea. And believe it or not I just had one slice. Not telling how thick though.
I though these bakingcups were adorable so I had to buy them. I divided the batter into two of these.   
Almond and orange loaf
1 loaf
7 oz unsalted butter
7 oz all-purpose flour
1 tbsp grated orange peel
7 oz granulated sugar
3 large eggs
2 oz ground almonds
1 tsp bakingpowder
1/4 tsp salt
1 oz plain yoghurt
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 oz flaked almonds

Preheat oven to 325 F. Grease a loaf tin with butter and dust with flour.
Cream butter, sugar and orange peel in a kitchen aid with paddle attatchment or 
with an electric whisk until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at the time. 
Whisk well after each addition.
Whisk together ground almonds, flour, salt and bakingpowder in a bowl.
Add flour mixture to the butter/eggs in two batches. Beat until just incorporated.
Mix in the yoghurt and vanilla. Do not overmix.
Pour batter into the loaf tin and sprinke over the flaked almonds.
Bake for 45-50 min until the sponge is firm to the touch.
Allow to cool in the tin a little while before turning it out on a wire rack to cool completely.
