My brother made this cake for a CCC event when he was staying with us on holiday in France last year. I can’t quite remember why he chose this particular recipe, but we were all pleased that he did. It was easy to make, turned out exactly like the picture on the website and tasted delicious.
I thought that now would be a good time to post about it, this being the marmalade making season (although I have never made any myself) and many people being ready to bake something a bit less rich and less Christmassy . You can see the original here.
Ingredients
125g full fat Greek yoghurt
50ml vegetable oil
zest of 1 lemon
zest of 1 orange
3 eggs
125g caster sugar
200g plain flour
2 tsp baking powder
75g marmalade
1 tbsp orange juice
Method
Preheat the oven to 180°C / 160° fan / gas mk4. Butter and line a 1lb loaf tin or use a paper liner.
Beat together the yoghurt, oil zests and eggs in a large bowl until light and frothy. Sift in the flour and baking powder, add the sugar and mix until just combined.
Spoon into the tin and bake for about 45 minutes until done. Remove from the oven.
Whilst the cake is cooling slightly, warm the marmalade and orange juice in a small pan until the marmalade melts. Pour over the still warm cake and leave to cool completely in the tin.
Remove when cold and cut in thick slices.
Cuts into 8-10 slices.
Sounds delicious!!! Looks wonderful!
