Ingredients
Cake Batter
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 ¼ cup sugar
- 1 orange zested
- 3 eggs at room temperature
- ¼ cup olive oil
- ¾ cup Greek yogurt at room temperature
- ⅓ cup orange juice
Orange Glaze
- 2 tablespoons orange juice
- ¾ cup powdered sugar
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Prepare the cake pan by lining the bottom with a round piece of parchment paper and lightly greasing the sides.
- In a mixing bowl, combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer, add the sugar and orange zest and use your fingers to massage together until it becomes moist. Add eggs to the sugar mixture and beat together on medium-high speed until light and fluffy.
- Lower the speed to medium-low, then add oil, yogurt, and orange juice to the foamy egg mixture. Mix until well combined.
- Add the dry mixture to the wet mixture and mix on low speed until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
- Transfer to the prepared cake pan. Bake for 35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Remove from the oven and allow the cake to cool in the pan for about 20 minutes.
- While the cake is cooling, whisk together orange juice, powdered sugar, and vanilla for the glaze until smooth.
- Transfer the cake to a wire rack, peeling off the parchment paper. Place the rack on top of a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Slowly pour orange glaze over the warm cake. If needed, use the back of a spoon to spread the glaze.
