How to Make Orange And Cardamom Cake
- Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake tin.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 250g all-purpose flour, 200g granulated sugar, 5g baking powder, 5g ground cardamom, 2g ground cinnamon, and 2g salt.
- In a separate bowl, whisk 4 large eggs until light and frothy.
- Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients. Add 100ml fresh orange juice, 100ml canola (or sunflower) oil, zest of 1 orange, zest of ½ lemon, 1 tsp vanilla extract, and the whisked eggs.
- Gently mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Pour batter into the prepared cake tin and spread evenly.
- Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool in the tin for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- **Prepare the Orange Glaze:** In a small saucepan, combine 100g powdered sugar, 2 tbsp fresh orange juice, and a pinch of cardamom. Heat over low heat, stirring constantly, until smooth and glossy.
- Once the cake is completely cool, poke holes all over the top with a fork. Slowly pour the glaze over the cake, allowing it to drip down the sides.
- Let the glaze set completely before serving. Enjoy!
