This cake got me so excited that I had to immediately make it. This is a proof, that sometimes, simple is better. The cake is super soft and moist, and the flavor of the orange was very intense, oh so good! The cake has a heavier and dense texture which makes it a very filling snack, but I wouldn’t judge If you eat more than 1 slice, because I am guilty myself. Let’s keep it between us and the many others reading this blog 🙂

Eggless & Butterless Orange Sponge Cake Recipe

Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt or Sour Cream
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup freshly squeeze orange juice (Box or bottled will work too, although it does have a sugar so the cake could be a little bit sweeter)
  • 1/3 cup flavorless oil
  • 2 Large orange zest (Outer skin of the orange, I use fine cheese grater to remove the outer thin layer of the orange)
  • 1 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 2 tbsp icing sugar
  • fresh fruits for toppings – optional

Recipe Notes:

  • If you prefer a lemon flavor, use lemon zest instead of orange zest and lemon juice instead of orange juice.
  • The yogurt and oil replaces the use of butter and egg in the recipe. If you use butter and eggs in the recipe, that will require different steps.

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the oven at 350F.
  2. Mix sugar with yogurt until it dissolves.
  3. Add orange juice and oil.
  4. Add orange zest.
