Notes
- Use a variety of citrus fruits. This recipe can also be made using other citruses like lemon, mandarin, citron, tangerine, limes, and grapefruits.
- Add some chopped nuts or seeds to give your cake some crunch.
- If you want a more elaborate presentation, you can make this on a Bundt cake instead. Those nooks and dips will certainly add more visual appeal.
- You can add some fresh orange flesh on top and sprinkle powdered sugar before serving.
- Serve with vegan banana ice cream, vegan yogurt, or vegan whipped cream on top!
