With less than ten ingredients this whole orange cake with citrus icing is super easy to make and is the perfect way to treat yourself, as well as your guests.
Ingredients
1 (240g) whole orange
200g butter, melted
3 eggs, lightly beaten
1 cup (220g) caster sugar
1 1/2 cups (225g) self-raising flour
Citrus icing
1 (240g) orange
1 cup (160g) icing sugar mixture
1 tsp boiling water
Method
Preheat the oven to 180°C (160°C fan-forced). Grease a deep 20cm cake pan, line base with baking paper.
Wash and dry orange; cut into quarters and remove seeds. Process in a small food processor until pulpy.
Transfer orange to a medium bowl, stir in butter, eggs, sugar and sifted flour until smooth. Pour mixture into prepared pan. Bake for about 40 minutes or until cooked when tested. Stand for 10 minutes before turning onto a wire rack to cool.
To make citrus icing, use a zester to remove strips of rind from the orange – you will need 2 tsp. Squeeze juice from fruit – you will need 4 tsp orange juice. Sift icing sugar into a bowl; stir in juices and enough water to make a smooth paste. Stir in rind.
Pour icing immediately over cake; stand until set.
