Do not use brown sugar because it would add a molasses flavour that may overpower the delicate orange flavour of the cake. Stick to granulated or caster sugar for this cake! <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>butter<\/strong>, preferably unsalted butter because you will add salt to the batter, but if you have salted, it will work. Just adjust the salt in the recipe accordingly, otherwise your cake may be too salty<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>large eggs<\/strong>\u2014don't use smaller eggs because your cake may be too dry, but don't use extra large eggs because they could affect the texture of the cake. Sometimes eggs can toughen a cake!<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>vanilla extract<\/strong>&nbsp;is a great complement to orange flavour, but you could also try orange extract or even orange oil to bring even more flavour to the cake<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>flour<\/strong>\u2014I tested this with cake flour, which is lower in protein and higher in starch. Cake flour gives the cake a delicate, finer, more even crumb.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>leavening agents<\/strong>\u2014baking powder and baking soda are needed in this recipe. The&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/bakeschool.com\/focus-on-baking-soda\/\">baking soda<\/a>&nbsp;is a base (alkaline) and balances out the acidity of the sour cream in the batter, while&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/bakeschool.com\/what-is-baking-powder\/\">baking powder<\/a>&nbsp;helps the cake rise up. Read up on&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/bakeschool.com\/kitchen-geekery-baking-soda-vs-baking-powder\/\">baking soda vs baking powder<\/a>&nbsp;if you are unsure the difference<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>salt<\/strong>&nbsp;is really important to balance out the sweetness. Don't skip it. I like to use&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3Yg6ygA\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\">Diamond Crystal fine kosher salt<\/a>, but table salt will work, though the cake will be a touch saltier and you may want to halve the salt in that case.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>sour cream<\/strong>&nbsp;(full-fat) helps tenderize the cake and also the fat contributes to preventing the cake from going stale so quickly<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>fresh orange<\/strong>&nbsp;(both the zest and the juice) is the secret to bringing the real orange taste to this cake recipe. While the zest is added to the cake batter to bring orange flavour to the crumb, we use orange juice in a simple syrup that you brush onto the hot cake to help infuse the crust with a burst of flavour.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Please see the recipe card for the exact ingredients and quantities.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"substitutions-and-variations\"   class=\"wp-block-heading\" >Substitutions and Variations<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>With its simple list of ingredients, you can still make a few careful variations and substitutions on this recipe:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list feast-feature\">\n<li><strong>yogurt<\/strong>\u2014you can replace the sour cream with yogurt, preferably Greek yogurt with a higher fat content to ensure the cake is moist and not dry<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>orange flavour<\/strong>\u2014there are four main ways of infusing&nbsp;baked goods with orange&nbsp;flavour. I used a lot of orange zest and juice in this recipe. You can also enhance the orange flavour with orange oil or orange extract, but I haven't tested either of these so proceed with caution!<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>other citrus<\/strong>\u2014you can make this same recipe using two lemons or a ruby red grapefruit to create a lemon poppy seed loaf cake or a pink grapefruit cake<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>flour<\/strong>\u2014I tested the recipe with both bleached all-purpose flour and cake flour. I preferred cake flour but both work in this recipe.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>See this <a href=\"https:\/\/bakeschool.com\/lemon-loaf-cake\/\">lemon version of this recipe<\/a>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"instructions\"   class=\"wp-block-heading\" >Instructions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>I prefer to use a <a class=\"thirstylink\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"6 QT pro stand mixer\" href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3HeuBCM\" data-linkid=\"31716\" data-shortcode=\"true\">stand mixer<\/a> to make the batter for this orange cake, but an <a class=\"thirstylink\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Braun electric hand mixer\" href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3rZW6eT\" data-linkid=\"31411\" data-shortcode=\"true\">electric hand mixer<\/a> will also work fine.
