Irresistibly moist orange bundt cake with creme fraiche - a delectable afternoon delight.
Ingredients:
  • 250g ctn crème fraîche
  • 3 eggs, lightly whisked
  • 2 oranges, rind finely grated, juiced
  • 375g (2 1/2 cups) plain flour
  • 8.00 gm baking powder
  • 1.25 gm bicarbonate of soda
  • 200g unsalted butter, chopped, at room temperature
  • 215g (1 cup) caster sugar
  • 150g (1 cup) icing sugar
  • 10.40 gm milk
  • Orange zest, to serve
Instructions:
  • Preheat the oven to 180C (160C fan forced) and generously grease a 2.25L bundt pan.
  • Mix crème fraîche, egg, and 80ml (1⁄3 cup) orange juice in one bowl. In another bowl, whisk flour, baking powder, and bicarbonate.
  • Beat the butter, caster sugar, and 1 tablespoon of orange rind in a large bowl with electric beaters on medium speed for 12 minutes or until very pale and creamy.
  • Gently mix in the flour and crème fraîche, alternating between the two, until smooth. Pour the batter into the pan and bake for 35-40 minutes until a skewer comes out clean. Let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Sift the icing sugar into a bowl, then mix in the milk, remaining orange juice, and orange rind. Stir until smooth, then drizzle over the cooled cake and sprinkle with orange zest.
