Vanilla clementine cake
Vanilla clementine cake is a delightful dessert that combines the fragrant flavors of vanilla and citrus. It typically consists of a moist vanilla cake infused with the refreshing zest and juice of clementines. The cake is often topped with a creamy vanilla frosting or a light citrus glaze to enhance the flavors. It’s a perfect choice for those who enjoy a harmonious blend of sweetness and tanginess.
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup unsalted butter softened
- 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
- 4 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 Zest of clementines
- 2 lementines juice
- 1/2 cup milk
- For the Vanilla Glaze:
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1-2 tablespoons clementine juice
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan.
- In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the clementine juice and milk. Begin and end with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
- Fold in the clementine zest, ensuring it’s evenly distributed throughout the batter.
- Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
- Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- While the cake is cooling, prepare the vanilla glaze. In a small bowl, whisk together powdered sugar, clementine juice, and vanilla extract until smooth and pourable. Adjust the consistency by adding more juice or powdered sugar as needed.
- Once the cake has cooled completely, drizzle the vanilla glaze over the top, allowing it to drip down the sides.
- Slice, serve, and enjoy!
