Healthy Orange Cake Recipe 🍊

Perfect for birthdays, afternoon tea, or even a cosy Sunday brunch.

Ingredients:

  • 4 eggs
  • Juice and zest of 2 oranges
  • 2 cups of oat flour (approx. 160g)
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 2 tablespoons honey

Method:

  1. Preheat the oven to 180 °C and line a cake tin with baking paper or lightly grease it.
  2. Separate the eggs and whisk the egg whites until stiff peaks form. Set aside.
  3. In another bowl, mix the egg yolks with the orange juice and honey.
  4. Add the oat flour, baking powder and orange zest to the mixture.
  5. Stir gently until you have a smooth batter, then fold in the egg whites carefully to keep the mixture light and airy.
  6. If the batter feels too thick, add a splash of warm water to adjust the consistency.
  7. Pour into the prepared tin and bake for 25–30 minutes, or until golden and cooked through.
  8. Allow to cool, remove from the tin and… have fun decorating!
