Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Once cooled, cut the oranges into quarters and remove any seeds.
- Puree the oranges (with the skins) in a blender until smooth.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the orange puree, sugar, buttermilk, eggs, and olive oil until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and baking soda.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Tips:
- Ensure the oranges are at room temperature for easier juicing and zesting.
- Use fresh buttermilk for the best texture in your cake.
- Don’t overmix the batter once you combine the dry and wet ingredients, to keep the cake light and fluffy.
- Allow the cake to cool completely before adding the ganache to avoid melting.
- Incorporate the dark chocolate slowly into the cream to ensure a smooth and glossy ganache.
