Good to know

Chef's tip

For even more aromatic orange zest, make sure to remove only the colored part of the orange, without the white pith, which can add bitterness. Use a fine grater, or the Turbo mode of your Monsieur Cuisine in very short pulses, to chop it finely.

Freezing : Can you freeze this recipe?

Yes

Freezes very well, whole or in slices, up to 3 months in plastic wrap and then a freezer container or bag.

Storage : How long does it keep?

Keeps 3 to 4 days in an airtight container at room temperature or in the fridge.

Making ahead : Can you make it the day before?

Yes

Ideally, make it the day before. The flavors develop and the texture improves. Store as directed.

Reheating : How do you reheat it?

No reheating needed, enjoy at room temperature. Can be warmed very slightly (30-60 sec in the microwave at low power) if desired.

Variations

Decorate with thin orange slices.
Dust with powdered sugar once the cake has cooled.
Serve it as an afternoon snack or a dessert.

Mistakes to avoid

Skipping the whisk: whip the eggs and sugar for 4 minutes for a light batter.
Overmixing the batter after adding the flour: 45 seconds is enough.
Unmolding a warm cake: leave it 10 minutes in its pan.

Frequently asked questions

How do you make the batter in the Monsieur Cuisine?

Insert the whisk, whip the eggs and sugar for 4 minutes at speed 4, add the oil, orange juice, and zest for 30 seconds at speed 3, then the flour and baking powder for 45 seconds at speed 3.

How long should the cake bake?

Butter and flour the pan, pour in the batter, and bake for 35 minutes at 180 °C. A toothpick inserted in the center should come out clean. Then let it cool for 10 minutes before unmolding.

How do you get a good orange flavor?

Combine the juice and zest of an untreated orange with the vegetable oil in the batter: the zest concentrates the aromas and gives the cake a bold fragrance without too much acidity.

Which finish should you choose?

Once the cake has cooled completely on a wire rack, dust it with powdered sugar and decorate it with a few thin orange slices before serving.
