Since everyone loves cakes and are open to trying new recipes, here we
go with another Whole Wheat Cake with Orange which is a healthy cake for
all fitness freaks and gives added Vitamin- C.
Recipe:– This recipe will give a cake of approximately 475 gm and give the
best result with fresh oranges. As you all know I am a believer of making
cooking simple so this is also one pot recipe with no beater and is eggless.
I have not tried this with eggs at all. I felt eggs would overpower the orange
flavour.
Ingredients
- one cup Whole Wheat flour
- one tablespoon Corn flour
- half teaspoon Baking soda
- half teaspoon Baking powder
- one pinch Salt
- half cup cup Castor Sugar
- 1/4 cup Cooking oil (can not be replaced with butter)
- one cup or 200 ml Fresh orange juice or Tetra pack one
- one teaspoon Orange zest or ½ tsp orange essence or 1 tbsp marmalade
Methods
- Preheat your oven to 180 degree C.
- Sieve the dry ingredients- whole wheat flour corn flour, salt, baking powder, baking soda and keep aside. Sieving is very important for airing the mixture
- In a bowl take the wet ingredients- castor sugar, oil and orange juice. Beat well with Hand.
- Add Orange Zest/ Essence
- Now add the sieved flour mixture and mix softly in cut and fold in one direction
- Mix everything very well with a spatula and check there should be no lumps in the cake batter
- Pour the batter in a lined or greased cake tin of about 6 inches.
- Bake in a preheated oven for 180 degrees C for 30-35 minutes or till the toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Cool the cake before cutting slices
After all that hard work, treat yourself with a big slice of the decadent cake with tea or coffee.I PROMISE eating a big ol’ slice will be worth it!!
P.S. add some chocolate chips to attract kids,trust me it works all the time… 😉
