This Easy Glazed Orange Bundt cake is the perfect cake for breakfast or teatime.

This recipe is one of the most popular recipes on my blog, and no wonder it is, because it’s one of the best cakes I’ve eaten in a long time!

The cake has a dense but moist crumb full of orange flavor and the orange glaze adds even more sweet citrus flavor to the cake.

I’ve tried making citrus flavored cakes before but they have always been such a disappointment as they always end up laking in the citrusy lemon or orange flavor.

But this cake is packed full of orange flavor, and those of you who love citrus flavored cakes, I promise you will absolutely love this recipe!

Ingredients
For the Cake:

  • 1 1/2 cups flour
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 3 tablespoons milk
  • 3/4 cup freshly squeezed orange juice from about 3 oranges
  • 1/2 cup oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 5-6 tablespoons orange zest from about 3 oranges
  • Pinch of salt

For the Glaze:

  • 1 1/4 cups icing sugar
  • 2-3 tablespoons fresh orange juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions
For the Cake:

  • Preheat oven to 350 F (176 C) and prepare a bundt cake pan by greasing it well. The bundt pan I used is fairly small and is 7.5 inches wide and 3.5 inches deep.
  • In a medium large bowl, sift together all the dry ingredients, and mix until combined. Set aside.
  • In a separate bowl, combine the wet ingredients and whisk until combined.
  • Slowly add the dry ingredient mix to the wet ingredients, and lightly whisk until combined. Do not over mix.
  • Pour the batter into the bundt cake and bake for about 30-40 minutes until lightly golden brown on top and a toothpick comes out clean. (See Notes)
