Orange Roll Breakfast Cake
Description
The Orange Roll Breakfast Cake starts with a base of flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, buttermilk, eggs, vanilla, and melted butter combined into a smooth batter poured into a baking pan. A topping mixture with butter, sugar, flour, orange juice, and zest is dropped over the batter and gently swirled to create a citrus-infused marble effect throughout the cake. Baking produces a tender, moist cake with bursts of orange flavor in the swirled topping. After baking, a glaze made of softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, orange juice, and zest is whipped smooth and poured over the warm cake. Poking holes before glazing allows it to soak slightly into the cake, enhancing moisture and flavor. This cake’s texture and flavor make it suitable for a special breakfast treat or brunch addition.
Ingredients
- 3 cups flour
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 4 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/2 cups buttermilk
- 2 egg
- 2 teaspoons vanilla
- 1/2 cup butter melted
Topping:
- 1 cup butter softened
- 1 cup sugar
- 2 Tablespoons flour
- 1 Tablespoon orange juice fresh
- 1 Tablespoon orange zest
Orange Cream Glaze:
- 4 ounces cream cheese softened
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 1/3 cup orange juice fresh
- 2 teaspoons orange zest
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- In a large bowl, mix together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add buttermilk, eggs, and vanilla and stir. Slowly pour in melted butter and fold into batter.
- Pour into greased 9 x 13 baking pan.
- In a medium bowl, stir together butter, sugar, flour, orange juice and orange zest. Drop evenly over batter and swirl with a knife to incorporate into the batter. This is an important step as you want to swirl it into the cake from the bottom to the top.
- Bake for 30-36 minutes.
- In mixing bowl, beat cream cheese for 1 minute until creamy. Add powdered sugar, orange juice, and orange zest. Pour over warm cake. If you would like some of the glaze to seep into the cake, poke holes and let the glaze fill the cake.
