Cake Ingredients

Method

Cake Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 6-inch round cake pans.

  2. 2

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Cream Butter and Sugar

    In a large mixing bowl, cream the softened butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy, about 4-5 minutes.

  4. 4

    Add Eggs and Flavorings

    Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Then mix in the orange zest, orange juice, and vanilla extract until well combined.

  5. 5

    Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients

    Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing just until combined. Do not overmix.

  6. 6

    Pour Batter into Pans

    Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans. Smooth the tops with a spatula.

  7. 7

    Bake the Cakes

    Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

  8. 8

    Cool the Cakes

    Remove the cakes from the oven and let them cool in the pans for 10 minutes. Then, turn them out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
