Zubereitung von Orange Snack Cake
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour an 11 x 7-inch baking pan.
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and 1 ½ cups granulated sugar using an electric mixer until light and fluffy.
- Beat in 3 large eggs one at a time, then stir in 1 teaspoon orange extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, ½ teaspoon baking soda, and ½ teaspoon salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with 1 cup buttermilk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
- Gently fold in 1 cup finely grated orange zest, ½ cup raisins (optional), and ½ cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional).
- Pour batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- While the cake is baking, prepare the glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together ⅓ cup granulated sugar and ¼ cup freshly squeezed orange juice until smooth.
- Once the cake is baked, let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes.
- Poke holes all over the warm cake using a fork or toothpick.
- Gradually pour the glaze over the warm cake, allowing it to soak in.
- Let the cake cool completely in the pan before serving. Enjoy!
