    Preparation Steps

    1

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a cake pan with parchment paper or grease and flour it.

    2

    In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and ground spices.

    3

    In a separate bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.

    4

    Stir in the orange juice and orange zest into the egg mixture. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.

    5

    Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the cake cool completely in the pan before removing.

    6

    Before serving, dust the cake with powdered sugar. You can also garnish with freshly grated orange zest or a sprinkle of cinnamon.
