Orange Bundt Cake is one of those simple bake that taste so fresh and soft. It is made with flour, butter, sugar, orange juice and zest then baked in bundt mold which gives pretty shape. The cake turn out moist and flavorful with a nice citrus kick. It looks very pretty when serving and feels special even though it very simple to make.

Ingredients

  • ½ cup maida
  • ⅛ cup + 1 tablespoon butter
  • ½ cup powdered sugar
  • teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ¼ cup orange juice
  • ¼ teaspoon orange zest
  • ¼ cup milk

Instructions

  • Beat butter and sugar together until creamy.
  • Whisk flour, baking powder and baking soda together and set aside.
  • Add milk to butter mixture, whisk it well then add flour mixture. Whisk it well without any lumps.
  • Then add fresh orange juice and whisk to form a smooth creamy flowing batter.
  • Then orange zest, give a quick mix.
  • Preheat oven at 180 deg C for 10 minutes.
  • The batter will be flowing but spoonable. Grease your pan with oil.
  • Spoon the batter into the bundt pan till ¾ th of the center stick.
  • Bake in preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the top turns golden.
  • Cool down for few minutes then slowly invert and remove the cakes.
  • Enjoy Orange Bundt Cake!

Notes

  • Zesting orange – I have used small grater to take zest. I don’t grate the white part as it gives bitter taste. You can always zest just before baking for freshness.
  • Mixing batter – I usually fold the flour gently after mixing wet ingredients. If you whisk too much cake may become dense. You can just mix until no lumps.
  • Baking time – I have noticed the timing depends on oven and pan size. I usually check from 12 minutes with toothpick. You can keep an eye after that.
  • Bundt pan size – I have filled batter only ¾th in the bundt mold. You can also try other shapes but don’t overfill else it may overflow while baking.
  • Cooling – I usually let the cake sit for few minutes before unmolding. You can invert slowly once edges are loosened, else cake may break.
