Create a moist and flavorful orange syrup cake.
Ingredients:
  • Non-stick cooking spray
  • 225g butter or margarine, chopped
  • 220g (1 cup) caster sugar
  • 225g (1 1/2 cups) self-raising flour, sifted
  • 1 orange, rind finely grated, juiced
  • 52.80 gm sweet orange marmalade Ground cinnamon, to serve
  • 160g (1 cup) pure icing sugar, sifted
  • 1 orange, juiced
  • 200g plain yoghurt
  • 28.60 gm honey
Instructions:
  • Preheat your oven to 190°C and generously spray a 22cm fluted ring cake pan with non-stick cooking spray.
  • Cream together butter and caster sugar until light and fluffy using electric beaters. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Gently fold in sifted flour, followed by orange rind, juice, and marmalade until fully combined. Transfer batter to the cake pan, place on a baking tray, and bake in a preheated oven for 45-50 minutes or until golden and a skewer comes out clean. Cover with foil in the last 10 minutes of baking to avoid over-browning.
  • For the orange syrup, combine sifted icing sugar and orange juice in a bowl, whisking until the icing sugar dissolves. Allow the cake to sit in the pan for 10 minutes after removing it from the oven. Transfer the cake onto a serving plate. Brush the cake generously with the orange syrup using a pastry brush until fully absorbed. Allow the cake to cool before serving.
  • Mix together the honey and yogurt in a bowl. Serve the cake with a generous sprinkle of cinnamon over the honey yogurt.
