Ingredients
  • Cake:
  • Cooking spray
  • 3 cups plus 1 Tbsp. all-purpose flour
  • 1-1/2 cups granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons ground cardamom
  • Note: I sometimes replace the cardamom with 1 teaspoon nutmeg.
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup fresh orange juice
  • 2/3 cup vegetable or canola oil
  • 1-1/2 Tbsp. grated orange rind
  • 2 teaspoons grated lemon rind
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 large eggs
  • Glaze:
  • 1-1/2 cups powdered sugar
  • 4-1/2 teaspoons fresh orange juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon fresh lemon juice

Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 350°.
  2. To prepare cake, coat a 10 inch Bundt pan with cooking spray and dust with 1 tablespoon flour. Set aside.
  3. Note: I prefer to grease the Bundt pan as opposed to spraying it.
  4. Lightly spoon flour into dry measuring cups, and level with a knife.
  5. Combine 3 cups flour, sugar, baking powder, cardamom, cinnamon, and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a large bowl.
  6. Make a well in center of mixture.
  7. Add 3/4 cup orange juice, canola oil, orange rind, lemon rind, vanilla, and eggs to flour mixture, and beat with a mixer at low speed until well combined, scraping sides of bowl occasionally.
  8. Spoon batter into prepared cake pan, spreading evenly.
  9. Bake at 350° for 50 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean.
  10. Cool in pan for 5 minutes on a wire rack, and remove from pan.
  11. To prepare glaze:
  12. Combine 1 cup of powdered sugar, 4-1/2 teaspoons orange juice, and lemon juice in a small bowl, stirring well with a whisk. Drizzle glaze over warm cake and cool cake completely on wire rack.
  13. 10 slices
