I didn't have any dry milk so I omitted it and the orange peel. It still tasted YUMMY and moist!

Used self rising flour for a more cake-like product, but everyone loved the moistness and the extra tang of the orange juice and honey. Several said although they don't care for pumpkin pie, they would make this recipe for the holidays
