I have made this orange raisin cake a lot with pulpy oranges. So good when served warm. Use a blender or a food processor to grind the orange. Ingredients:
1 large orange |
1 cup raisins |
1/3 cup chopped walnuts |
2 cups all-purpose flour |
1 cup white sugar |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
1 teaspoon salt |
1 cup milk |
1/2 cup shortening |
2 eggs |
1/3 cup white sugar |
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
1/4 cup chopped walnuts |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch pan. 2. Squeeze the orange and reserve 1/3 cup of the juice. Grind the orange peel and pulp, raisins and 1/3 cup walnuts together. Set aside. 3. In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking soda and salt. Add milk, shortening, and eggs. Beat for 3 minutes at medium speed. Stir in orange-raisin mixture. 4. Pour batter into prepared pan. Bake in the preheated oven for 35 to 40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. 5. For the topping: Drizzle reserved 1/3 cup orange juice over warm cake. In a small bowl combine 1/3 cup sugar, 1 teaspoon cinnamon and 1/4 cup walnuts; sprinkle over cake |
