This cake is the one my mother is preparing like a chef! It is really simple but excellent. You cannot fail it. Good luck and degustez avec bon! (The cake will look dark orange so if you use black decoration on it, it is a perfect Halloween dessert).

Yield:
1 9-inch square pan

Ingredients

  • cup vegetable oil

  • 1 cup white sugar

  • 2 eggs

  • ½ cup plain yogurt

  • 2 oranges, zested and juiced

  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour

  • 1 teaspoon baking powder

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

  2. In a medium bowl, mix together the vegetable oil, sugar and eggs. Stir in yogurt and orange zest. Combine the flour and baking powder; stir into the mixture just until blended. Pour the batter into a greased 9-inch baking pan.

  3. Bake in the preheated oven until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean, about 30 minutes. Poke holes in the cake with a knife, and pour the juice from the oranges over the cake slowly until it has all been absorbed.
