Whole Orange Cake
I saw a recipe for Whole Orange Cake and I was like, really? A whole orange, including the peel, in a cake? I got so intrigued, so I bought some seedless oranges and got to baking.
The recipe calls for pureed 1 whole orange, but I used a half more. 3 eggs, 180 g of butter, a cup of sugar, 1 1/2 cup of self-rising flour, or 1 1/2 cup of all purpose flour sifted with 1 1/2 teaspoon of baking powder.
I mixed them all together, put the batter in a greased loaf pan, and baked at 180C for 40 minutes. While waiting for it to bake, I enjoyed the yummy smell from the oven filling up the kitchen.
And there you have it. It’s yummy and moist, and so easy to prepare too. Since I added extra fruit in it, the cake screams orange at the first bite. Yum yum! Eaten best with a cup of coffee and good company.
I was going to top it with some icing, but hubby and I love it as it is. Maybe on my next attempt.

Yummy! You make it sound so easy. But baking is a challenge I haven’t taken up. So… sige, maybe one of these days…
I’ll try this tomorrow:)
you make it sound so easy!!!!!!
Ang saya naman Cess! I’m so inspired by your baking adventures. I remember when Ysa was just around 2-4 years old, she told me that I have to bake because I’m a mom. “Moms bake Ma!” Thanks to mommy stereotypes, I had to know how to bake. Unfortunately, didn’t find time to learning how to do it from scratch but I am thankful for those boxed mixes that turn out to be a delight once popped in the oven.
Patikim minsan!
