STEP 1: Prep your ingredients

STEP 2:  Add the wet ingredients to a large mixing bowl and whisk well.

STEP 3: Sift in flour and baking powder and mix with a hand mixer or whisk for a few seconds. Do not overmix. Some lumps are ok.

STEP 4: Pour the cake batter into the cake pan and bake for 25 - 30 minutes at 340°F or 170°C or until a toothpick comes out dry.

STEP 5: Take out of the pan and let the orange cake cool down for about 30 to 45 minutes on a wire rack.

STEP 6: Prepare your ingredients for the orange curd.

STEP 7: Squeeze the oranges, filter them through a sift and add them to a small saucepan. Add sugar and cornstarch (or potato starch). Stir with a whisk to dissolve the sugar and the starch.

STEP 8: On medium-low heat, cook the liquid for one to two minutes while stirring. When the liquid thickens, remove it from the heat and keep stirring for another minute.

STEP 9: With a serrated knife or bread knife, cut the orange cake open in half. Make sure the cake has cooled completely before you do that.

FILL THE CAKE: Add the orange curd and spread it evenly on the base layer of the cake.

Cover with the top layer and sprinkle with powdered sugar.
