Provided by Aleya Zenieris

Categories     Bakery Goods

Time 2h5m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 ¼ cups granulated sugar
1 navel orange, zested
1 ¾ cups all purpose flour
½ cup almond flour, finely ground
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 ½ teaspoons kosher salt
2 large eggs, room temperature
½ cup full-fat greek yogurt
1 large navel orange, juiced
1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
⅔ cup olive oil, plus more for greasing
1 tablespoon powdered sugar
whipped cream, for serving, optional

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, stir together the sugar and orange zest. Let sit for 30-60 minutes to allow the orange oils to perfume the sugar, which will enhance the flavor of the cake.
  • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, almond flour, baking powder, and salt.
  • Add the eggs to the orange-infused sugar. Using an electric hand mixer on medium speed, beat together until smooth and fluffy, 1-2 minutes. Add the Greek yogurt, orange juice, vanilla, and olive oil and beat on medium-low speed until combined.
  • Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients in 2 batches and mix on low speed until just combined. The batter should be thick, but smooth, and fall off the beaters in thick ribbons.
  • Lightly grease a 9-inch cake pan with olive oil. Line the bottom with a parchment paper round and lightly grease with more oil. Pour the batter into the prepared pan.
  • Bake the cake for 40-45 minutes, or until golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let cool on a wire rack for 20 minutes before inverting the cake from the pan. Remove the parchment paper and flip right-side up.
  • Dust the top of the cake with the powdered sugar, then slice and serve with whipped cream alongside, if desired.
  • Enjoy!
