RECIPE

Orange Syrup Cake

from Nyrelle Duncan

Makes approx. 12 slices
Prep time: 15 minutes
Cooking time: 30 minutes

Ingredients

Olive oil spray
1 cup caster sugar
125g butter
2 eggs
200g vanilla yoghurt
2 tsp finely grated orange rind
1 1/2 cups self raising flour
1/2 cup orange juice

Method
1. Pre-heat oven to 180C. Spray a 20cm
round cake pan with oil. Line the base
and sides with baking paper.
2. Use an electric beater to beat the butter
and 3/4 cup of the sugar until smooth.
Add eggs one at a time, beating well
after each addition. Stir in yoghurt and
rind. Fold through the flour. Spoon the
mixture into the pan and smooth the
surface with the back of a spoon.
3. Bake for 40 minutes or until cooked when
tested with a skewer.
Remove cake from oven. Stand for 5
minutes before turning onto a serving
plate.

4. Meanwhile combine the orange juice and
remaining sugar in a small saucepan. Stir
over medium heat without boiling until the
sugar dissolves. Bring to the boil and
cook 4 minutes or until syrupy.
5. Pour the syrup over the cake and serve
warm sprinkled with strips of orange rind.
