Time 1h50m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

4 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus more for the pan
1 small to medium grapefruit
1 navel orange
1 Cara Cara or blood orange
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup light brown sugar
1 tablespoon orange liqueur, optional
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 cup buttermilk

Steps:

  • For the topping: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Generously butter a 9-inch round cake pan and line the bottom with parchment paper.
  • Use a fine grater to zest 1 teaspoon zest from each of the citruses (for a total of 1 tablespoon zest). Reserve the zest for the cake.
  • Cut the top and bottom off of each citrus and place them with a flat side on the cutting board. Then, following the curve of the fruit, use a sharp knife to cut off the peels and as much of the white pith as possible. Slice the fruit crosswise into 1/4-inch thick rounds; carefully remove any seeds.
  • Combine the butter and sugars in a small saucepan and warm over medium-low heat until melted. Pour into the prepared cake pan and spread evenly. Top with the citrus rounds so that they fit very snugly and are slightly overlapping (you may not use every slice). Drizzle with the orange liqueur, if using.
  • For the cake: Whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt together in a medium bowl. Put the butter, sugar and reserved zest in another bowl and beat with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the eggs one at a time, beating after each addition. Beat in the vanilla. Add the flour mixture in 3 batches, alternating with the buttermilk, beginning and ending with the flour; mix until just combined.
  • Pour the cake batter over the citrus and bake until a wooden pick inserted into the center just comes out clean, 50 to 60 minutes. Run a sharp knife around the edge of the cake and let it cool for 15 minutes, then carefully invert it onto a platter, replacing any citrus that may have stuck to the pan. Serve slightly warm or at room temperature.

Time 1h40m

Yield One 9-by-13-inch cake

Number Of Ingredients 21

5 Meyer lemons
3 navel oranges (or tangelos)
5 tangerines
3 Cara Cara oranges
3 Ruby Red grapefruits
3 blood oranges
1/4 cup granulated sugar
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 tablespoon water
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup (12 tablespoons) unsalted butter, softened
1 1/4 cups granulated sugar
3 large eggs, room temperature
1 1/2 cups buttermilk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Zest from 1 navel or Cara Cara orange
Zest from 1 Meyer lemon

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • For the citrus: Slice the Meyer lemons into 1/4-inch-thick wheels, then trim the wheels into even squares (about 1 1/2 inches in size). Repeat with the navel oranges, tangerines, Cara Cara oranges, grapefruits and blood oranges. Line the cut citrus pieces on a baking sheet in a single layer. Set aside.
  • For the glaze: Place the granulated sugar, brown sugar, butter and water into a small saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium heat; simmer until the sugars dissolve. Pour the mixture into a 9-by-13-inch baking dish and, using a pastry brush, brush over the entire surface.
  • Starting with blood oranges and beginning at the top right corner of the baking dish, tightly line the blood orange pieces side by side, with the corners at the top, bottom and sides so you have a row of diamonds, not squares. Repeat, fitting the second row tightly into the gaps from the first row. Repeat with remaining citrus, going from dark to light and creating 2 rows for each type, until the entire baking dish is filled. Cut the remaining citrus diamonds in half and place into the edges of the dish to fill in the remaining gaps around the border. Set aside.
  • For the buttermilk cake: Place the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a mixing bowl and whisk together. In another mixing bowl, combine the butter and granulated sugar and beat together with an electric hand mixer until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time and beat together. Add the dry mixture to the wet mixture and beat together. Add the buttermilk and beat together until a thick batter forms with no lumps. Stir the vanilla and citrus zest into the batter until just combined.
  • Pour the cake batter over the arranged citrus in the baking dish and spread around until you have an even layer. Bake the cake for 30 to 35 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean when inserted into the center of the cake and the top is golden brown. Remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool for at least 30 minutes.
  • Place a cutting board or large platter upside down over the top of the baking dish and quickly but carefully invert the cake. Carefully lift the baking dish from the cake to reveal the ombre top. Slice and serve.

CITRUS UPSIDE-DOWN CAKE



Citrus Upside-Down Cake image

This spectacular cake is practically foolproof to make. You slice a variety of peeled oranges into rounds, nestle them in a butter-rum glaze in a square pan, spread the batter over them, bake, and flip. To achieve the effect of stained-glass windows, we combined blood oranges, Cara Caras, and mandarins.

Time 1h20m

Yield Makes One 8-Inch Cake

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 stick unsalted butter, softened, plus more for pan
1 1/4 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon kosher salt (we use Diamond Crystal)
1 cup sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons finely grated tangerine or orange zest
2 large eggs, room temperature
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 cup sour cream, room temperature
3 to 4 tangerines or oranges, such as blood oranges, Cara Cara, or mandarins, or a combination
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1/2 cup sugar
1 tablespoon dark rum, such as Myers's (optional)

Steps:

  • Cake: Preheat oven to 350°F. Brush an 8-inch square pan with 2-inch-high sides with butter. Whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  • In a mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat butter with sugar and zest on medium speed until light and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in vanilla and sour cream, scraping down sides of bowl as needed. Reduce speed to low and gradually add flour mixture.
  • Topping: With a sharp knife, slice ends off each citrus. Following curve of fruit, cut away peel, removing as much white pith as possible. Slice fruit crosswise into 1/4-inch-thick rounds, and remove any seeds. In a small bowl, stir together butter, sugar, and rum. Spread mixture over bottom of prepared pan. Arrange sliced citrus over it in a snug, slightly overlapping even layer (cut some to fit into corners).
  • Spread batter over citrus. Bake until cake is golden and puffed and a tester inserted in center comes out clean, about 55 minutes. Transfer pan to a wire rack and let cool 30 minutes. Invert onto a cake plate; serve the same day, warm or room temperature.

Time 1h20m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

nonstick cooking spray, for greasing
¾ stick unsalted butter
1 cup granulated sugar
¼ cup fresh orange juice
1 blood orange, thinly sliced
1 cara cara orange
1 navel orange, thinly sliced
1 meyer lemon, thinly sliced
3 large eggs, room temperature
1 cup sour cream, room temperature
½ cup water
⅓ cup melted butter
1 navel orange, zested
1 navel orange
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 box vanilla cake mix
1 box instant vanilla pudding mix

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Generously grease an 8 x 11-inch baking dish with nonstick spray.
  • Make the orange syrup: Add the butter, sugar, and orange juice to a small saucepan. Whisk to combine, then cook over medium heat until the sugar dissolves, stirring occasionally to prevent burning, 4-5 minutes.
  • Pour the orange syrup into the prepared baking dish. Starting from a short side of the baking dish, arrange the blood orange slices vertically, overlapping slightly to fit as many slices as possible (this will help keep the citrus in place during baking). Continue with the cara cara slices, then navel orange slices, then Meyer lemon slices to create an ombré effect.
  • Make the cake batter: Add the eggs, sour cream, water, melted butter, orange zest and juice, and vanilla to a large bowl and whisk to combine. Add the cake mix and pudding mix and fold with a rubber spatula to incorporate. Pour the batter into the baking dish, spreading evenly.
  • Bake the cake for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
  • Let the cake cool for 15 minutes, then invert onto a serving platter. Let cool completely before slicing and serving.
  • Enjoy!
