Recipe Video
Ingredients
- 3count de Eggs
- 1,5cup de Sugar
- 1/4cup de Corn OilSubstitui por: outros óleos vegetais
- 1cup de Orange Juice (freshly squeezed)Substitui por: outro suco cítrico
- 2cups de All-Purpose Flour
- 1tablespoon de Baking Powder
- 1/2cup de Powdered Sugar (Confectioners' Sugar)
- to taste (gradually) de Orange Juice
Instructions
In a bowl, beat the eggs, sugar, and oil until a light and fluffy cream forms.
Dica: Beating well ensures a more airy texture.
Add the freshly squeezed orange juice (strained, if preferred) to the creamy mixture and gently fold it in.
Dica: Valencia or Navel oranges are suggested, but other types can be used.
Sift the all-purpose flour and baking powder together over the batter.
Dica: Sifting the dry ingredients makes the cake fluffier and lighter.
Mix the sifted dry ingredients into the batter until it is completely smooth and lump-free.
Dica: Mixing the dry ingredients thoroughly ensures the final lightness of the batter.
Transfer the smooth batter to a greased and floured loaf pan (approximately 8x4 inches), filling it halfway at most, as the yield is intended for two cakes of this size.
Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (180°C) for about 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out completely clean.
Dica: Only bake once the oven is preheated.
While the cake cools completely, prepare the frosting by mixing the powdered sugar with the orange juice, adding the liquid gradually until a creamy consistency is achieved, being careful not to make it too runny.
Dica: Add the juice slowly to get the glaze consistency right and prevent it from running off too much.
Remove the cake from the pan once cooled and cover the surface with the glaze, allowing it to drip slightly down the sides for an aesthetic finish.
Dica: Wait for the cake to cool completely before applying the frosting.
