SPOON ORANGE CAKE WITHOUT USING THE SCALE

An orange cake without using the scale, just a kitchen spoon and the result is delicious.

I often have guests for dinner and I like to impress them with delicious but not too heavy desserts, and these types of bundt cakes come to our aid: simple, quick, and scenic, perfect to serve with a scoop of ice cream on the side 🙂

This one doesn’t even need many precautions; I always make it without using my scale: once the batteries abandoned me, this was perfect.

Let’s see how it’s made.

Tools

For a successful recipe, I recommend these tools (ADV)

Steps

  • Let’s start by washing the oranges under running water and drying them with a cloth.

    On a cutting board, we slice the oranges and set them aside; in a small pot, we pour the sugar with water and the juice of half a lemon, pour in the oranges and let cook for 10 minutes.

    Let it cool.

  • In a bowl, we pour the eggs with the sugar and start whisking for a few minutes, then gradually add all the ingredients until, lastly, the baking powder.

    Preparing orange cake
  • Place parchment paper in the cake pan and arrange the chilled orange slices on the bottom, pour the batter on top and level well with a spatula.

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit, and as soon as it reaches temperature, bake the cake.

    Let it bake for 45 minutes and then do the toothpick test: insert a toothpick into the cake, if it comes out clean, it’s ready.

  • Let it cool well before removing from the pan.

  • The SPOON ORANGE CAKE WITHOUT USING THE SCALE is ready.
