Mixing Things Up
- Preparation: Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and grease a round cake pan.
- Whisking the Yolks: In a mixing bowl, beat the egg yolks with 55g of sugar until the mixture is pale and fluffy.
- Adding Flavors: Gently fold in the orange zest to infuse the batter with that fresh citrus aroma.
- Whipping the Whites: In a separate bowl, whip the egg whites until stiff peaks form.
- Combining: Slowly fold the whipped egg whites into the yolk mixture, being careful not to deflate the airy texture.
Baking Brilliance
- Sifting and Folding: Gradually add the cake flour to the batter, sifting it in and folding gently until just combined.
- Zesty Finish: Zest the orange over the batter for a burst of flavor before giving everything a final mix.
- Bake to Perfection: Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
The Sweet Reward
After patiently waiting for your cake to bake to perfection, your kitchen will be filled with the most tantalizing aroma of orangey goodness. Allow your creation to cool before slicing into it and savoring each moist and flavorful bite.
