Ingredients
- 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup unsalted butter (softened)
- 2 large eggs
- ½ cup freshly squeezed orange juice
- ¼ cup whole milk
- 1 tablespoon orange zest
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
For the Glaze (optional)
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 2-3 tablespoon orange juice
- ½ teaspoon orange zest
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour an 8-inch round cake pan.
- In a bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
- In another bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each.
- Stir in orange juice, milk, orange zest, and vanilla extract.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool completely before glazing or serving.
- For the glaze, whisk powdered sugar, orange juice, and zest until smooth. Drizzle over the cooled cake.
Notes
- Make Ahead: Bake the cake a day in advance, and glaze just before serving for the freshest flavor and presentation.
- Customizing the Flavor: Add a splash of almond extract or fold in chopped nuts or dried cranberries for a unique twist.
- Serving Suggestions: Serve the cake with a dusting of powdered sugar, or drizzle with the optional orange glaze for extra zing. Pair with coffee or tea.
- Allergy-Friendly Options: Substitute dairy milk with almond or oat milk for a dairy-free version. Use gluten-free flour for a gluten-free cake.
- Storage Tips: Store the cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for up to a week.
