  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F and grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the orange juice and vanilla extract. Mix until just combined.
  6. Stir in the orange zest.
  7. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
  8. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes.
  10. Transfer the cake to a wire rack to cool completely.
  11. In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar and enough orange juice to make a thick glaze.
