Orange Walnut Olive Oil Cake With Sweet Yogurt Recipes

ORANGE YOGURT CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 350 degrees
• Prepare a springform pan by buttering the sides of the pan and using a parchment circle on the bottom (butter the parchment as well)
• Mix together the flour, sea salt, baking powder and baking soda in mixing bowl
• In a mixing bowl add the sugar, Greek yogurt, eggs, olive oil, orange juice, orange zest and vanilla. Make sure the ingredients are well blended and creamy.
• Add in the dry ingredients mixing just enough until well blended with no visible lumps
• Pour the batter into your prepared springform pan and place in your preheated oven on the middle rack.
• Bake for 50-60 minutes. The cake should have a rich golden brown color, if it looks as though the cake is getting too brown you can cover it with foil.
• The cake is done when a toothpick comes out clean from the center.
• Allow to cool for 10 minutes on a wire rack, then remove the outside of the springform pan, allowing to cool for 15 more minutes.
• Remove the bottom and parchment and serve warm with homemade whipped cream and fresh berries.

WALNUT-ORANGE CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray 9-inch-diameter springform pan with nonstick olive oil spray. Place parchment paper round in bottom of pan and spray paper.
• Grind walnuts in processor until finely ground but not powdery. Combine ground walnuts, flour, and baking powder in medium bowl; set aside.
• Using electric mixer, beat eggs in large bowl until frothy, about 2 minutes. Gradually add sugar, beating until light, thick, and pale yellow, about 4 minutes. Gradually add walnut-flour mixture; then add orange juice, orange peel, and olive oil, beating just until blended. Transfer batter to prepared pan. Place pan on rimmed baking sheet, and bake cake until tester inserted into center comes out clean, about 1 hour. Cool cake completely in pan on rack.
• Release pan sides. Carefully invert cake onto platter and remove parchment paper. Sprinkle powdered sugar atop cake and serve.

ORANGE OLIVE OIL CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325F, add a circle of parchment paper to the base of a 9-inch springform pan, and spray the parchment paper and the sides of the pan very well with cooking spray; set aside. Do not make this cake in a regular 9-inch cake pan. Most are only about 1 1/2 to 2 inches deep and this cake rises to about 2 1/2 to 3 inches on the sides and nearly 4 inches in the center. It will overflow in a regular 9-inch pan.
• To a large bowl, add the olive oil, eggs, and whisk well to emulsify and incorporate.
• Add the milk, orange zest, orange juice (I was able to get sufficient zest and juice from one large orange), Grand Marnier, and whisk to incorporate.
• Add the sugar and whisk to incorporate.
• Add the flour, salt, baking powder, baking soda, and whisk until just incorporated; don't overmix. The batter in on the thin side; this is normal.
• Turn batter out into prepared pan, place pan on a baking sheet as insurance against a leaky springform pan, and bake for about 70 to 75 minutes. Start checking after 60 minutes since all ovens vary. Cake will be golden browned and domed in the center when done, and a toothpick inserted in the center will come out clean or with a few moist crumbs. **
• Allow cake to cool in the springform pan for about 1 hour before releasing it and allowing the cake to finish cooling on a wire rack.
• Dust with confectioners' sugar prior to serving.
