Orange Cake That Melts in Your Mouth

by

    1. Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease and flour a cake pan.

    1. Beat the eggs: In a large bowl, beat the 3 eggs with a pinch of salt until frothy.
    2. Add sugar and oil: Gradually add the sugar and continue to beat until the mixture is well combined. Slowly pour in the vegetable oil while mixing.
    3. Add orange juice and zest: Mix in the fresh orange juice and grated orange zest.

    1. Combine dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, sift together the flour and baking powder. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, folding gently until just combined.
    2. Pour into the pan: Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top.
    3. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

  1. Cool and garnish: Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Drizzle with honey and sprinkle with coconut flakes before serving.
