Yogurt and orange cake

Simple cakes are always a joy to bake  .This is an old fashioned cake to satisfy sweet craving without any frosting.

Orange peel when infused with other ingredients imparts such a beautiful aroma ,u just need to experience it to believe what I say.

All those who know about it,i can see u nodding.

Here is a piece of cake for u to try  .Try it and tell me.

I like to use the orange rinds instead of sogging cake with the orange juice as I like to bite the tiny orange bits.Yogurt gives the cake a smooth texture.I have used self rising flour as it contains baking powder and salt  so no hassle of sifting it well.

All you will need:

self rising flour-1 cup

unsalted butter-1stick at room temperature

yogurt-6 tbsp whisked well

sugar-1 cup 

eggs-2

orange rinds-4 to5 pieces
vanilla extract-1 tsp

Now proceed:

1.Grease and dust a 9" cake pan

2.Cream butter and sugar till well combined then add yogurt.

.Beat the eggs till light and fluffy add it to the mix now slowly add the self rising flour little at a time and fold into the mixture till all the flour is used up.Add the finely chopped orange rinds and fold in once more.Pour into cake pan.

3.Bake in a preheated oven at 350ºF  for 40-45 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean on inserting.
4.Cool on a wire rack .slice when completely cooled.

NOTE 
If the yogurt is too runny then u might have to adjust the cake mixture with a tablespoon more of self rising flour.

This is a soft yummy cake I am sure u will fall in love with it .You can frost it if u want .I love it just the way it is .
Do tell me what it reminds u of.
