For those who like making homemade bread, this is easy and delicious. OrangeMarmaladeBread:
6 cups of flour 2 1/2 tsp salt 4 Tbsp butter 1/2 cup orange marmalade 1/4 cup of honey 1 cup rolled oats (not the instant kind) 2 cups boiling water 2 pkgs active dry yeast 1/3 cup luke warm water 1 tsp sugar
Put the rolled oat in a very large bowl and pour boiling water over them. Let soak until soft and lukewarm.
Next soak the yeast in water and sugar and let stand 5 minutes until yeast has grown. Whiole the yeast is growing start with other ingredients.
Add to soaked oats, honey, orange marmalade, salt and butter. By now the yeast has grown and is ready. Stir yeast into the above ingredients. Sitr in the first 2 cups of flour, then add 2 more cups. (I used my kitchen aid stand mixer for this, but you could do it by hand) The last 2 cups you knead in.Use a floured board or countertop and knead dough constantly folding it over and over.(about 15 strokes) If dough is sticky add more flour.The dough should be smooth an elastic. Shape into a mound and place in a greased bowl and cover with a clean dish towel. It will take several hours to rise. Should be doubled in soze a rise slightly above the bowl.
Cut down the dough anf divide in half. It will deflate. Divide the two halves and grease to bread loaf pans. Make sure dough has been pressed down evenly. Cover anf let rise again until dough rises above pans.
Put in a 325 degree oven for 50 minutes or until golden brown. Be careful not to bake too long. Bread is done when a hollow sound is heard when you tap the top. I use the back of a wooden sponn to test.
My mom has always said that bread always rises better on a warm sunny day. I have made 8 loaves of this and froze them . I am giving them out as gift. This bread is great toasted with butter or jam.
I do homemade bread - all by hand - and, as familiar as I am with the basics, this sounds like a good combination. The marmalade itself might rather mess up the budget (quite expensive where I live) but I think I can work on that using fresh oranges. I'll try to remember to get back to this thread after some experimentation!!!

I grabbed this from the web years ago, and used to make it for my sister (a marmalade freak) whenever she came to visit. Makes one small jar.
No canning or pectin involved
1 medium navel orange (thinnest peel possible)
2 tablespoons water
1/2 cup sugar (I use 1/2 sugar and 1/2 Splenda and it works well.)
Wash the orange thoroughly.
Cut off both ends of the orange.
Cut the orange in half, cut each half in about eight sections.
Put the orange sections in the food processor and pulse until the peel in is tiny pieces.
In a medium saucepan place the processed orange, the water and the sugar and bring to a gentle boil.
Gently simmer for 15 minutes, stirring frequently.
Let cool, then place in a glass jar with a tight fitting lid.
Refrigerate to store.
When it is cold it is ready to eat.

Oh, I forgot that foods can be more expensive in the island's and Hawaii. What about ordering it online and have it shipped? Let me know how it works with the fresh oranges. I'd be curious to know how it turned out.
