Instructions

1 ✓

Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease Bundt pan thoroughly and dust with flour.

Tip: You can use ground almonds instead of flour for dusting for extra flavor and crunch.
2 ✓

Mix flour, baking powder, and salt in a bowl.

Tip: Uniform distribution of baking powder ensures an even rise.
3 ✓

In another bowl, beat eggs with sugar and vanilla extract until thick and pale (approx. 5 mins).

Tip: The egg foam holds the air bubbles. The longer you beat, the lighter the cake.
4 ✓

Mix the lukewarm melted butter, citrus juices, and zests into the egg foam.

Tip: If butter is too hot, it will scramble the eggs. Ensure it's lukewarm.
5 ✓

Gently fold the flour mixture into the liquid ingredients until just combined.

Tip: Do not overmix! The goal is just to moisten. Overmixing makes it dense.
6 ✓

Pour into pan and bake for 40-45 minutes. Check with a toothpick.

Tip: Citrus acidity can affect baking time, so the toothpick test is essential.
7 ✓

Cool in pan for 10 minutes, then invert onto a rack. Dust with confectioners' sugar before serving.

Tip: Warm cake breaks easily; resting stabilizes the structure.

Recipe FAQ

Can I use store-bought orange juice?
Yes, but fresh squeezed tastes much brighter. If using store-bought, pick 100% juice.
Why is it bitter?
You likely zested the white pith (albedo) along with the peel. Only use the colorful outer layer!
