Description

Very tasty cake with orange flavor! I am not the author, but I want to share with you this recipe)

Ingredients

Chicken egg

7 piece
Sugar

1.5 cup
Flour

2 cup
Leavening agent

1 pack
Orange juice

0.75 cup
Orange zest

4 piece
Sunflower oil

0.25 cup

Cooking

Start making the dough. First, grate on a rather fine grated rind of 4 oranges (if too small, maybe more). Squeeze out 1 tbsp. juice Prepared baking dish (it is better to do first, as then when the dough is ready, it (the dough) should be poured into a form): form bottom cover baking paper and grease with butter or margarine

Take 7 eggs and separate the whites from the yolks. For proteins smaller dishes for egg yolks - a little more; yet the whites put into the refrigerator.

And yolks 1 tbsp. sugar and begin whisking; whisk until until the mixture will increase in volume and will not turn white

Add almost a full glass of orange juice, the grated zest of the oranges and 1\4 tbsp. of vegetable oil.

Mix everything.

Begin to whisk the egg whites first on low speed, increasing the volume of the mass (due to foam) increase the speed of whisking

When the mass will increase quite strongly, add half a Cup of sugar and whisk until then, until the tilting of the ware mass will flow down the walls

In a bowl, yolks and all the other add half of the proteins and begin to very gently (upward motion, from the edge of the dish to the center) to mix until smooth

Gradually add 2 tbsp. flour and baking powder and lightly mix everything together

Add the remains of proteins

And very carefully stir (the accuracy needed to proteins not fallen down, and the dough turned out airy and delicious)

The dough is ready

Immediately (!!!) put it into the form. Put the dough in the already heated oven. 5 min. bake at 200 degrees and then until cooked at a temperature of 170-180 degrees. The first 20-30 minutes the oven do not open (so that the dough does not opal). Readiness check with a wooden skewer (to pierce the cake and if the stick is not stuck to the dough, it's ready) or by pressing on the center of the biscuit (if he immediately accepts the initial form is ready). By the time I can not say exactly, all depends on the oven and shape what size used. This time, baked an hour and a half, usually less.

Here it is. Put it on a towel until cool. Should not be exposed to the cold. You can leave to cool in the oven
