Follow The Directions

01

Step

Prepare: Gather all ingredients and ensure they are at the specified temperatures. (5 minutes)

02

Step

Preheat & Prep: Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Generously coat an 8x4-inch loaf pan with nonstick spray, then dust with flour. Line the bottom with a parchment paper sling for easy removal. (5 minutes)

03

Step

Orange Prep: Wash the orange thoroughly and pat dry. Cut into eighths, carefully removing any seeds. (5 minutes)

04

Step

Blend Wet Ingredients: In a high-speed blender, combine the orange pieces, eggs, sugar, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Cover and blend until completely smooth, about 30 seconds. (2 minutes)

05

Step

Blend Dry Ingredients: Add the flour, baking powder, and salt to the blender. Cover and pulse gently until just combined and the batter is smooth. Avoid over-blending. (2 minutes)

06

Step

Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading evenly. Bake until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean, approximately 45-50 minutes. (50 minutes)

07

Step

Cool: Let the cake cool in the pan on a wire rack for 10 minutes before inverting it onto the rack to cool completely. (1 hour)

08

Step

Glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar and orange juice (or milk) until smooth and glossy. Drizzle generously over the cooled loaf. (5 minutes)

09

Step

Serve: Slice and serve. Enjoy the vibrant orange flavor! (5 minutes)

For a more intense orange flavor, consider adding 1 teaspoon of orange zest to the batter.
To prevent the top from browning too quickly, tent the loaf with foil during the last 15 minutes of baking.
This cake is delicious on its own, but can also be served with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
The cake can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
