This orange cake is so yummy and quick to make!


Ingredients (makes 1 cake)

  • 1 orange
  • 100g butter
  • 150g caster sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 160g yoghurt
  • 175g self-raising flour, sifted
  • 1/2 cup desicated coconut
  • 1 cup pure icing sugar
  • 1 tablespoon softened butter

Method

  1. Preheat oven to 180 degrees. Grate the zest of the orange into a bowl, add the butter, caster sugar, eggs, yoghurt, flour and coconut. Mix well with beaters until combined. (You may also choose to squeeze the juice into the cake batter to add more flavour).
  2. Place into a greased cake tin and cook for approximately 25 minutes or until cake is golden and when a skewer is inserted, comes out clean. Allow cake to cool.
  3. In another bowl add the icing sugar and butter and beat until combined in a nice icing consistency (I added some of the orange juice to the icing to give it some zing). Spread on the cake and enjoy!

Notes

The cake can be gluten free if you substitute the flour for gluten free.

  • Wow looks very simple! Though way too much sugar for us. Did you try with less sugar?

  • This looks delicious! Any suggestion on what I could lsubstitute for coconut due to allergies?

  • I’d love to be able to make this cake but allergies forbid it. Maybe my son can make it and take some to our local vets as a thank you for looking after my animals.

  • I’m making this! I bought oranges thinking everyone would eat them, and now they’re just shrinking in the fruit bowl. I do love an orange cake.
