Ingredients
Method
- Preheat the oven to 190°C.
- Grease a medium bundt cake tin, then dust with flour.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the yogurt, oil and vanilla, then add the orange zest and juice.
- In another bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, bicarb and sugar. Pour in the wet mixture gradually, then stir until well combined.
- Transfer the batter into the tin.
- Put the tin in the middle of the oven and bake for about 50 minutes or until an inserted skewer comes out clean.
- Let it rest in the tin for 10 minutes, then turn it onto a wire rack and let it cool completely.
- Meanwhile, cut the orange into thin rings. Heat a frying pan and melt the margarine. Dust with sugar then put the orange slice over the sugar.
- Caramelize the slices for a minute or so, then scatter some more sugar on top and turn them over.
- When the orange slices are golden on both sides, transfer them to a plate and let them cool.
- Make the glaze by combining the icing sugar with the orange juice. Pour this over the cake, then “glue” the orange slices on top of the cake.
