Orange & Poppy Seed Cake
Orange & Poppy Seed Cake Recipe
Ingredients
1 cup self-raising flour
1-1/2 cup white sugar
1 whole orange
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup oil
20 gms of grey poppy seeds
Method
Preheat the oven to 180-200 degrees.
Mix well sugar and self-raising flour.
Cut the whole orange with skin and make a coarse paste of it.
Thus the skin of orange is also used. No wastage.
Add the orange paste to the dry flour. Add oil. Mix well.
Slowly add BC cup of milk. Mix well. Check for consistency. If too
thick add the other BC
cup.
The cake mix should be of thick dough consistency. Fold in the poppy
seeds.
Line the cake tin. Pour the mixture into the tin and bake for 45
minutes to an hour.
Each oven has its own baking time, so read the oven instructions.
Insert a fork to check if the cake is done. The fork should come
out clean.
Once done remove the cake from tin and allow to cool on the wire
rack.
You may ice the cake with either an orange / lemon icing. But icing
the cake increases
the calories.
