Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1.5 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 1 tablespoon orange zest
- 0.75 cup freshly squeezed orange juice
- 0.5 cup vegetable oil
- 1 unit large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar (for dusting, optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and lightly flour an 8-inch square or round cake pan to prevent sticking.
In a large zip-top bag or a large, sealable container, combine the dry ingredients: all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, salt, and orange zest.
Seal the bag or container and shake vigorously until all the dry ingredients are well-mixed and evenly distributed.
Add the wet ingredients to the bag: freshly squeezed orange juice, vegetable oil, egg, and vanilla extract. Reseal tightly (ensure no leaks), and shake the bag or container until the batter is smooth and fully combined. Alternatively, you can pour the contents into a mixing bowl and whisk until smooth.
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan, spreading it evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once cool, dust the top with powdered sugar (optional) before slicing and serving.
