Total time: 55 min
Yield: 1 9-inch round cake
Cuisine: Danish
Ingredients: 2 cups all-purpose flour; 1 cup granulated sugar; 1 teaspoon baking powder; 1/2 teaspoon baking soda; Pinch of salt; Zest of 2 oranges; 1/2 cup freshly squeezed orange juice; 1/2 cup vegetable oil; 2 eggs; 1 teaspoon vanilla extract; 1 cup Greek yogurt

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch round cake pan with butter or non-stick cooking spray. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and orange zest until well combined. These dry ingredients will form the base of your cake.
In a separate bowl, combine the freshly squeezed orange juice, vegetable oil, eggs, vanilla extract, and Greek yogurt. Mix until smooth and evenly incorporated.
Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until no lumps remain. Be careful not to overmix the batter, as this can lead to a dense cake.
Transfer the batter into the prepared cake pan, spreading it out evenly with a spatula. Tap the pan gently on the counter to release any air bubbles.
Bake the cake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. The citrusy aroma will fill your kitchen as it bakes to perfection.
Once fully baked, remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Afterward, carefully transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
For an extra touch of decadence, you can dust the top of the cake with powdered sugar or drizzle with a simple orange glaze made from powdered sugar and orange juice.
Slice the Appelsinkage Orange Cake and serve it with a cup of hot tea or coffee, indulging in the delightful flavors of the holiday season.
