Description

Ingredients

• 3 c. all-purpose flour
• 1 tsp. salt
• 1½ tsp. baking powder
• 1-1/4 tsp. cardamom
• 2½ c. sugar
• 1½ c. whole milk
• 1 c. vegetable oil
• 3 large eggs
• zest of 1 large orange (about 2 tbsp.)
• 2 tsp. orange extract
• 2 tsp. vanilla
• zest of 1 large orange (about 2 tbsp.)
• juice of ½ orange (about ¼ cup)
• 3 tbsp. honey
• 3 c. powdered sugar

Directions

• In a medium bowl, combine flour, salt, baking powder, and cardamom.
• In a large bowl, whisk together sugar, milk, oil, eggs, orange zest, orange extract, and vanilla.
• Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined.
• Divide batter evenly between two well-greased or parchment paper-lined 8x4-inch loaf pans. (The loaves are sticky, so I prefer parchment paper, so they lift right out after cooling.)
• Bake at 350 degrees for 50-60 minutes, or until edges are golden brown, and a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean.
• Cool in pans for 15 minutes before removing to wire racks to cool completely.
• Meanwhile, prepare glaze.
• Whisk together glaze ingredients, adding a little water if needed to achieve desired consistency.
• Spread cakes with orange-honey glaze. Cut and serve.
