Orange Cake Recipe – Moist, fragrant and irresistible

Step 2: Prepare the dry ingredients
In another bowl, mix:
• 2 cups of sifted flour
• 1 tbsp of baking powder

Announcement:
Mix well to distribute the yeast.

Step 3: Incorporation
Gradually pour the dry ingredients into the liquid ingredients.
Gently mix with a spatula, without overworking the dough.

Step 4: Baking
Pour the batter into the prepared pan.
Bake at 180°C for 40 minutes.
Check for doneness: a toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean.

4. Preparing the orange syrup
While the cake is baking, in a saucepan:
• Mix 200 ml of orange juice with 7 tablespoons of sugar.
• Bring to a boil, then simmer for 1 minute.
Keep the syrup hot.

5. Finishing Touches:
Once out of the oven, pour the hot syrup over the still-warm cake.
Let it soak in for 5 to 10 minutes.
Carefully unmold.

Serve warm or cold… and enjoy!
