This is a great holiday entertaining cake or a hostess gift idea. The orange makes you think of Christmas, yet this would also be great in the summer after an outdoor BBQ. Enjoy.
In one bowl, whisk 1 1/2 cup cake flour, 3/4 tsp baking powder and a pinch of salt.
In another small bowl, mix orange zest from 1 big orange with 1/2 cup milk and a tsp vanilla extract.
In another med. sized bowl, whisk 1/2 cup egg whites until huge and fluffy, set aside.
In the biggest bowl you have, using a hand mixer, blend 1/2 cup softened unsalted butter with 3/4 cup sugar until fluffy.
1. Preheat oven to 350
2. In 3 batches, add flour mix and milk mix to butter mix.
3. When that is well mixed, fold in the egg whites, followed by about 3/4 cup fresh blueberries.
4. Pour in a lightly greased loaf dish and bake for an hour. Test with a tooth pick.
5. After 5 minutes, remove from pan and set on a wire rack to cool.
6. Once cooled, mix 1 tbsp fresh orange juice, a squeeze of honey and a sprinkle of sugar together, poke holes on top of the cake and brush the mix over the top.
Simply Moolicious!!!
