TRADITIONAL BRITISH RECIPE: This is probably the best Orange Cake I've ever make. The recipe is incredibly easy, although Oil, not Extra virgin Oilive Oil, but Vegetable Oil, is used.
My british mom gave me this traditional recipe.
I have very simple tastes when it comes to sweets, I like to make my own cakes, with few simple ingredients. Perhaps it is because I do not often have the patience to spend hours putting together elaborate desserts, but when I am in the mood to bake something, it can usually be put together quickly and without too many fancy ingredients.
This kind of Orange cake came to the UK from morocco, where Vegetable Oil is very much used in cakes.
This recipe will make a super moist Orange Cake, so moist that it's rarely served with frosting.
It takes just minutes to get into the oven, and will keep fresh for several days – in the unlikely event it lasts that long!
