Ingredients
  

  • 2 oranges whole
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan.
  • Wash the oranges and place them in a pot of boiling water. Cook for 15 minutes until soft.
  • Remove the oranges from the water and let them cool. Once they are cool, cut them into quarters. Remove any seeds and place the oranges in a blender or food processor. Process until smooth.
  • In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the vegetable oil and beat until well combined.
  • In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the egg mixture, mixing well after each addition.
  • Add the processed oranges to the batter and mix until well combined.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then, transfer the cake to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Once the cake is cooled, you can frost it if desired or serve it as is. Enjoy!
