The Best Traditional Orange Cake in the Universe

Описание: Welcome to Cosmos Recipes, where we blend the flavors of tradition with the essence of cosmic consciousness. Today, we invite you on a journey to explore the essence of Portugal with a delightful treat - Torta de Laranja, a beloved traditional Portuguese orange cake.

This heavenly dessert embodies the warmth of Portuguese hospitality and the zest of sun-kissed oranges. With its soft, sponge-like texture and vibrant citrus flavor, Torta de Laranja is a true delight for the senses.

Here's what you'll need:

Ingredients
▢ 6 eggs
▢ 200g sugar
▢ 25g flour
▢ 7g baking powder
▢ 1 orange (zest and juice)
▢ Butter, as needed
▢ 2 sheets of parchment paper
▢ 1 rectangular baking tray

Preparation
In a bowl, combine the sugar, flour, and baking powder. Mix everything well.
Add the zest and juice of the orange to the ingredients. Mix well and add the whole eggs. Incorporate until you obtain a homogeneous mixture.
In a baking tray, roughly spread butter and place a sheet of parchment paper on top.
Pour the mixture onto the tray and place in the oven at 220°C (I left it for about 30 minutes).
When it reaches your desired consistency (use the toothpick technique), remove the tray from the oven, sprinkle with a little sugar (to prevent sticking), unmold, and roll it under a sheet of parchment paper with a bit of cunning (watch the video BELOW). You can dust with powdered sugar (I did it to make it more appealing and appetizing).
Let it cool and place it in the refrigerator. You can slice it into individual portions and store in an airtight container. Let me know in the comments if you try it out!
