NO BUTTER ORANGE LOAF CAKE

I am not that much of a sweet tooth person but that doesn’t mean I can’t indulge once in a while. I also just realized I am allergic to egg whites which is a bummer since some of the things I like have eggs in them. Anyway, I am still able to handle some meals with a bit of egg but not all. That means goodbye to fluffy pancakes and meringues are a no-go zone for me. All in all, I shall overcome it one way or another, enough about me, today I have the best dessert you could want and it’s this no-butter orange loaf cake. I hope you are ready for this, for the recipe you will need;

Ingredients

1¼ cup all-purpose flour
¾ cup granulated sugar
1¼ tsp baking powder
2 large eggs
½ a cup of vegetable oil
150 ml freshly squeezed orange juice( I used the ones I zested)
Zest of 3 medium oranges
Tsp vanilla extract

METHOD

Preheat your oven to 160° fan-assisted oven/180°C conventional oven/350°F
Sif your flour and baking powder and set aside.
Then in another bowl beat your eggs and sugar until light and fluffy, you can use a handheld mixer.
Be patient when it comes to these two, it took me 3 minutes.
Then slowly, pour your oil while still whisking to combine.
Then add your orange juice, zest and vanilla extract and beat one again.
Now it’s time to combine the dry to wet ingredients.
Gently fold in your flour with the egg mixture until well combined.
Into a well-greased loaf tin and in the oven for 40-50 minutes until clear when pricked with a toothpick.
Once done, let it cool for a few minutes in the pan before turning it over.
Lightly sprinkle some icing sugar at the top, and slice up.
Serve and enjoy.
