Orange & polenta cake | Fruit recipes | Jamie Oliver recipe image

This delicious cake is full of zingy flavour and the syrup makes it something really special – enjoy!

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 13

Ingredients

200 g unsalted butter (at room temperature), plus extra for greasing
200 g demerara sugar
3 large free-range eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla essence
200 g ground almonds
100 g coarse polenta
2 oranges
1 teaspoon orange blossom water
1 teaspoon gluten-free baking powder
5 cardamom pods
250 ml orange juice (from 3-4 oranges)
30 ml orange blossom water
125 g golden caster sugar

Steps:

1. Preheat the oven to 160°C/320°F/gas 2½. Grease a 20cm springform tin, line the bottom and sides with greaseproof paper and grease again.
2. Beat the butter and sugar in a large bowl until light and creamy – don’t worry if it looks gritty, as the sugar will dissolve when it’s cooked. Beat in the eggs, one by one, then stir in the vanilla essence.
3. In a small bowl, combine the ground almonds, polenta, orange zest, orange blossom water and baking powder, then stir this into the cake mix.
4. Pour the mixture into the tin and bake for 40 to 50 minutes, or until the surface is light brown and the cake is coming away slightly from the sides of the tin.
5. Remove the tin from the oven, leave to cool for 10 minutes, then turn it out onto a plate. This cake will be quite fragile, so handle carefully as you remove it.
6. To make the syrup, crush the cardamom pods, then put all of the ingredients in a saucepan. Simmer over a medium-low heat for about 10 minutes, or until reduced and thickened slightly. Set aside to cool.
7. Prick the cake all over with a skewer, then brush generously with the syrup. Delicious served with a dollop of crème fraîche or yoghurt and an extra drizzle of syrup.

For the Cake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees (This Recipe uses the Reverse Creaming Method of Mixing.) Grease and flour two 8 x 2 inch round pans. In the bowl of your mixer add the dry ingredients, flour, sugar, salt and baking powder. In a separate bowl, add the eggs, orange juice concentrate, milk, orange extract and zest. With the mixer on low speed, add the slices of butter a few pieces at a time to the dry ingredients. Increase the mixer to medium speed and beat until the dry ingredients look crumbly and moistened. Scrape sides and bottom of bowl. SLOWLY add 1/2 of the egg mixture, increasing to medium speed for 1 1/2 minutes, the batter will become thick and fluffy. Scrape the bottom and sides of the bowl. Add a small amount of Orange Coloring Gel to the bowl if you would like the batter to be orange. Add the remaining egg mixture in 2 pourings, beating for 20 seconds after each addition. Bake at 350 degrees for 25 to 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with just a few crumbs attached. Let the cakes cool in the pan 10 minutes, then turn out. Works well for cupcakes. Makes 6 cups batter. For the Orange Cream Filling: Combine the pudding mix and heavy cream and orange extract in a mixing bowl. I prefer to mix with a hand held mixer, but a whisk is just fine too. If using a mixer, start on low speed until well combined. Then, switch to high speed and whip the pudding until thick and fluffy. If mousse is too thick, mix in small amounts of heavy cream to reach desired consistency. If mixing by hand, simply whisk rapidly for a couple of minutes or until mixture is nice and thick. Refrigerate until ready to use. Cakes with this filling should be chilled until close to serving time. For the Orange Cream Cheese Frosting: Cut the butter into slices and add to the bowl of your mixer. Beat on low to medium speed until the butter is softened and smooth. Cut the cold cream cheese into pieces and add to the butter, beating at low to medium speed until incorporated. Add the vanilla and orange flavorings. Gradually add the powdered sugar beating on low speed until blended. Cover the bowl with a towel to keep down the cloud of powdered sugar. Increase mixing speed and beat until fluffy. Don't over beat. This frosting will pipe best if used while still chilled. You can make it in advance, refrigerate and when ready to use let it soften slightly (do not microwave) and remix. Will frost a 3 layer 8 or 9 inch cake. When decorating our Dreamsicle Cake, we frosted our cake and then went back in with swirls of lightly tinted orange frosting for a pretty effect.

ORANGE CAKE RECIPE - SOUTHERN LIVING

This bright, citrus-flavored cake, published in the December, 1995 issue of Southern Living, was a family favorite shared with us by Sissy Nash and her daughter, Kathy Nash Cary. Kathy, already one of the country's most talented young chefs, owned and operated one restaurant and two delicatessens in Louisville, KY. Since then, she has been nominated for a James Beard award for Best Chef in the Southeast four years in a row, and continues to make her mark in the culinary world through Lilly's Bistro in Louisville, KY. This Orange Cake works well in a large 12-cup Bundt pan or a 100-inch tube pan, whichever you have available. Once you have whipped the egg whites, remember to gently fold them into the batter. You can make the Candied Orange Zest a few days in advance; just store it in an airtight container. While this cake makes a beautiful centerpiece on your holiday buffet, it is also an excellent choice for a springtime dessert.

CHOCOLATE ORANGE CAKE RECIPE - BBC FOOD

A simple all-in-one chocolate orange cake, is covered with an indulgent chocolate ganache. Deceptively easy to make and a treat for any occasion. If you are short of time to decorate the cake, simply melt the chocolate into the cream as below, then use around a quarter to fill the cake and the rest to cover; creating swirly patterns with the palette knife rather than going for the more-time consuming smooth effect. For this recipe you will need two 20cm/8in loose-based sandwich tins.

Once the first layer of icing has set, stir the remaining 2 tbsp milk into the remaining chocolate icing, until smooth and shiny. Spread the icing all over the top of the cake and down the sides as smoothly as possible using a palette knife. Leave for 2–3 hours to set and then carefully transfer to a cake stand or plate and top with the candied orange zest. (You can also leave it to cool a little and then create a swirly rather than a smooth topping on the cake.)
