An easy Orange Chiffon Cake recipe

Categories     Cake     Dairy     Egg     Dessert     Bake     Easter     Orange     Gourmet

Number Of Ingredients 20

For the cake:
2 1/4 cups cake flour (not self-rising)
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 tablespoon double-acting baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup vegetable oil
7 large egg yolks
3/4 cup fresh orange juice
2 tablespoons freshly grated orange zest
2 teaspoons vanilla
9 large egg whites
1 teaspoon cream of tartar
For the whipped cream frosting:
2 cups well-chilled heavy cream
3 tablespoons Grand Marnier or other orange-flavored liqueur
2 teaspoons freshly grated orange zest
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon orange-flower water (available at specialty foods shops), or to taste, if desired
candied mimosa balls and candied violets (both available at specialty foods shops) for garnish if desired
fresh orange sections, membranes discarded, for garnish if desired

Steps:

  • Make the cake:
  • Into a large bowl sift together the flour, 3/4 cup of the sugar, the baking powder, and the salt. In a bowl whisk together the oil, the egg yolks, the orange juice, the zest, and the vanilla and whisk the mixture into the flour mixture, whisking until the batter is smooth. In the large bowl of an electric mixer beat the egg whites with a pinch of salt until they are foamy, add the cream of tartar, and beat the whites until they hold stiff peaks. Add the remaining 3/4 cup sugar, a little at a time, and beat the whites until they hold stiff glossy peaks. Stir one third of the whites into the batter to lighten it and fold in the remaining whites gently but thoroughly. Spoon the batter into an ungreased 10-inch tube pan, 4 inches deep, with feet and a removable bottom, and bake the cake in the middle of a preheated 325°F. oven for 1 hour, or until a tester comes out clean. Invert the pan immediately onto a rack and let the cake cool completely in the pan upside down on the rack. Run a long thin knife around the outer and tube edges of the pan and turn the cake out of the pan onto the rack. Using a serrated knife cut the cake in half horizontally.
  • Make the cream frosting:
  • In a large bowl, chilled, with an electric mixer beat together the cream, the Grand Marnier, the zest, the sugar, the orange-flower water, and a pinch of salt until the mixture holds stiff peaks.
  • Transfer the bottom layer of the cake to a platter, spread some of the frosting on it, and top it with the remaining layer. Spread the remaining frosting on the top layer and side of the cake and garnish the cake with the candied mimosa balls, the candied violets, and the orange sections.

Time 2h45m

Yield Fourteen servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 1/2 cups sifted cake flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups sugar
1/2 cup safflower oil
7 large eggs, separated, plus 3 egg whites
3/4 cup freshly squeezed orange juice
2 tablespoons grated orange zest
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/4 teaspoons cream of tartar

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt and all but 2 tablespoons of the sugar and beat 1 minute to mix. Make a well in the center. Add the oil, egg yolks, orange juice, orange zest and vanilla and beat with electric mixer 1 minute or until smooth.
  • In another large mixing bowl, beat the egg whites until frothy, add the cream of tartar and beat until soft peaks form when the beater is raised. Beat in the remaining 2 tablespoons of sugar until stiff peaks form when the beater is raised slowly. Gently fold the egg whites into the batter with a large balloon wire whisk or slotted skimmer until just blended.

Yield Makes 14 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

All ingredients should be at room temperature.
2 1/4 cups sifted cake flour (8 ounces = 225 grams)
1 1/2 cups sugar (10.5 ounces = 300 grams)
2 teaspoons baking powder (10 grams)
1/2 teaspoon salt (3.5 grams)
1/2 liquid cup safflower oil (3.75 ounces = 108 grams)
7 large eggs, separated + 3 additional whites (yolks: 1/2 liquid cup = 4.5 ounces = 130 grams; whites: 1 1/4 liquid cups = 10.5 ounces = 300 grams)
3/4 liquid cup orange juice, freshly squeezed (6.25 ounces = 182 grams)
2 tablespoons grated orange zest (12 grams)
1 teaspoon vanilla (4 grams)
1 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar (4 grams)
Equipment:
One ungreased 10-inch two-piece tube pan

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325°F.
  • In a large mixing bowl combine the flour, all but 2 tablespoons of the sugar, baking powder, and salt and beat 1 minute to mix. Make a well in the center. Add the oil, egg yolks, orange juice, orange zest, and vanilla and beat 1 minute or until smooth.
  • In another large mixing bowl beat the egg whites until frothy, add the cream of tartar, and beat until soft peaks form when the beater is raised. Beat in the remaining 2 tablespoons sugar and beat until stiff peaks form when the beater is raised slowly. Gently fold the egg whites into the batter with a large balloon wire whisk, slotted skimmer, or angel food cake folder until just blended.
  • Pour into the tube pan (the batter will come to 1 inch from the top), run a small metal spatula or knife through the batter to prevent air pockets, and bake for 55 minutes or until a cake tester inserted in the center comes out clean and the cake springs back when lightly pressed in the center. Invert the pan, placing the tube opening over the neck of a soda or wine bottle to suspend it well above the counter, and cool the cake completely in the pan (this takes about 1 1/2 hours).
  • Loosen the sides with a long metal spatula and remove the center core of the pan. Dislodge the bottom and center core with a metal spatula or thin, sharp knife. (A wire cake tester works well around the core. To keep the sides attractive, press the spatula against the sides of the pan and avoid any up-and-down motion.) Invert onto a greased wire rack and reinvert onto a serving plate. Wrap airtight.
  • Finished Height:
  • 4 1/2 inches high in the middle.
  • Store:
  • 3 days room temperature, 10 days refrigerated, 2 months frozen.
  • Complimentary Adornments:
  • A light sprinkling of powdered sugar and/or decorate the base and center with orange blossoms or fresh daisies. Candied orange zest scattered on top also makes an attractive and flavorful addition.
  • Serve:
  • Room temperature or lightly chilled. Cut with a serrated knife.
  • Pointers for Success:
  • • Use cake flour that does not contain leavening. Do not use self-rising cake flour.
  • • Use superfine sugar for the finest texture and maximum volume.
  • • Measure or weigh ingredients carefully.
  • • Do not use oil that contains silicates - it will be listed on the label.
  • • Egg whites must be free of even a trace of yolk and the bowl must be spotless.
  • • When beating egg whites, use cream of tartar or be careful to beat just until stiff peaks form when the beater is raised slowly.
  • • Fold flour gently but thoroughly into the batter.
  • • Prevent air pockets by running a small metal spatula or knife through the batter before baking.
  • • Use the correct pan size.
  • • Bake immediately after mixing.
  • • Check for accurate oven temperature.
  • • Use correct baking time; do not underbake.
  • • Cool cakes upside down, well elevated from the countertop, in a draft-free area.
  • • Wrap cakes well when cool.
  • • An angel food cake folder, large balloon whisk, or slotted skimmer is ideal for folding in the flour with the least amount of air loss. If using the whisk, periodically shake out the batter which collects inside.

1 T lemon juice
1 1/2 t powdered gelatin
170 g/ 1/2 cup blood orange marmalade
71 g/ 1/2 cup Candied Kumquats , or other citrus peel in syrup
BUCKWHEAT CHIFFON CAKE
206 g/1 1/2 cups whole-grain buckwheat flour
1 3/4 t baking powder
1 t fine sea salt
124 g/ 1/2 cup plus 2 T superfine sugar
114 g/ 1/2 cup whole milk
65 g/3 egg yolks
56 g/ 1/4 cup grapeseed oil
37 g/2 T plus 1 t water
289 g/10 egg whites
1/4 t cream of tartar or lemon juice
BERGAMOT SYRUP
114 g/ 1/2 cup water
100 g/ 1/2 cup sugar
114 g/ 1/2 cup bergamot or blood orange juice
EARL GREY CRÈME ANGLAISE GANACHE
220 g/1 1/3 cups chopped bittersweet chocolate (70%), preferably Valrhona
6 g/2 T loose-leaf Earl Grey tea (or 4 tea bags) steeped overnight in 220 g/1 cup cold heavy cream
220 g/1 cup whole milk
86 g/4 egg yolks, at room temperature
42 g/3 T sugar
Cocoa powder for dusting

Steps:

  • To make the filling: Pour the lemon juice into a medium nonreactive bowl and add the gelatin. Stir to dissolve the gelatin, then add the marmalade and the candied citrus. Refrigerate until cool and set, about 2 hours (this can be made and refrigerated up to a day ahead).
  • To make the cake: Preheat the oven to 325°F/165°C. Line the bottom of 10-in/25-cm springform cake pan with parchment paper and set aside.
  • Sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt into a large bowl. Add 100 g /1/2 cup of the sugar and whisk to combine.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the milk, egg yolks, oil, and water. Make a well in the flour, add the yolk mixture, then whisk thoroughly and quickly for about 1 minute until very smooth.
  • Put the egg whites in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Beat on medium speed until frothy. Add the cream of tartar and beat on medium-high speed until the whites hold soft peaks. Slowly add the remaining 24 g/2 tablespoons sugar and beat on medium-high speed until the whites hold firm, shiny peaks. Using a rubber spatula, scoop about one-third of the whites into the bowl containing the batter and, with the rubber spatula, gently fold in to lighten the batter. Gently fold the remaining whites into the batter just until combined.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared pan, smoothing the top with an offset spatula. Bake until a cake tester inserted into the center comes out clean, about 1 hour and 15 minutes. Let cool in the pan on a wire rack. To unmold, run a paring knife around the inside of the pan to loosen the cake, release and remove the outside ring of the pan, then invert the cake onto the wire rack and peel off the parchment. (The cake will keep, tightly wrapped, in the refrigerator for up to 4 days or in the freezer for up to 1 month.)
  • To make the syrup: In a medium saucepan over medium heat combine the water, sugar, and bergamot juice and bring to a simmer. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until the sugar dissolves. Remove from the heat and let cool completely.
  • Wash, dry, and reassemble the springform pan. With a long, thin, serrated knife, cut the cake lengthwise into five equal layers. Place one layer in the bottom of the springform pan.
  • To make the ganache: Place a saucepan of water over medium heat and bring to a simmer. Set a heatproof bowl over the water, taking care that the bottom of the bowl does not touch the water. Add the chocolate and heat until halfway melted. Stir gently, remove from the heat, and let cool until it registers between 95°F/35°C and 115°F/46°C on an instant-read thermometer.
  • Remove the tea-infused cream from the refrigerator and strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a separate medium saucepan (if using tea bags, simply discard them). Add the milk and place over medium heat. Heat until it comes to just a boil, stirring occasionally.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and sugar. Whisking constantly, pour one-third of the hot cream mixture into the yolk-sugar mixture, then add this mixture to the remaining cream. Stir constantly over medium heat with a wooden spoon until the mixture thickens and coats the back of a spoon. Remove from the heat and pour through a fine-mesh sieve into a clean bowl and let it cool until it registers 140°F/60°C on an instant-read thermometer. This is your crème Anglaise.
  • Measure out 600 g/2 1/4 cups créme Anglaise and add to the chocolate in four or five additions, using a heatproof spatula and vigorous strokes to incorporate. The temperature of the mixture should not exceed 113°F/43°C, which is why the cream is added in several additions. The mixture may appear broken at first but should come together by the final addition of cream to be smooth and glossy. Let cool slightly. With a handheld immersion blender, blend the ganache until completely smooth and uniform. (A whisk is also fine, but an immersion blender makes for an ultra-silky ganache that pours very nicely.) Use immediately.
  • Using a pastry brush, soak the cake layer in the pan with one-quarter of the bergamot syrup. With an offset spatula, spread a thin layer of ganache (about 1/4 in/6 mm thick) over the cake. Top with a second cake layer, soak with an additional one-quarter of bergamot syrup, and then spread with half of the marmalade filling. Top with a third layer and repeat the process, alternating with one more layer of ganache and one more layer of marmalade filling, soaking each cake layer well with syrup. Top with the final cake layer, soak with the remaining syrup, and refrigerate until the cake is firm, 1 to 2 hours, then dust with cocoa powder.
  • Remove the cake from the refrigerator 2 hours before serving to bring to room temperature. To store, cover tightly and keep in a cool place for up to 4 days.

ORANGE GLOW CHIFFON CAKE



Orange Glow Chiffon Cake image

This recipe is an adoptee from the RecipeZaar account, originally posted by Mean Chef. This makes a really nice cake! It is a bit labor-intensive, but the results are so good. I measured out the egg yolks/whites, and I found that I needed 9 egg whites and 8 egg yolks (extra-large eggs).I hope you enjoy this as much as I did!

ORANGE CHIFFON CAKE WITH ORANGE GLAZE



Orange Chiffon Cake With Orange Glaze image

This is one of my Grandmother's recipes. I'm not sure where she got the recipe. I do remember how delicious it was when she used to bake this cake when I was a kid.

Provided by Cecelia Huddleston

Categories     Cakes

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 1/2 cups cake flour
1 1/4 cups sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 cup wesson oil
5 large egg yolks
3/4 cup orange juice
1 tablespoon grated orange peel
1 cup (about 8 large) egg whites, let stand 30 minutes at room temperature
1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
1/2 cup sugar
ORANGE GLAZE
1/3 cup butter, softened
2 cups powdered sugar
1 teaspoon grated orange peel
3 tablespoons orange juice

Steps:

  • 1. Move oven rack to lowest position. Preheat oven to 325 degrees. In large bowl, sift cake flour, 1 1/4 cups sugar and baking powder; set aside. In separate bowl, mix oil, egg yolks, orange juice and orange peel together; set aside.
  • 2. In mixer bowl, on medium speed beat egg whites with cream of tartar until foamy. On high speed,continue beating until soft peaks form. (Soft peaks are reached when the peaks drop when beaters are lifted). Gradually add sugar until firms peaks form. (Sugar needs to be added slowly so it will dissolve and not weigh down the meringue. Whites should look glossy when beaters are lifted. The tip of the peaks will pull back slightly but still hold).
  • 3. Beat flour mixture and orange juice mixture until well blended. Fold in egg whites. Gently pour batter into a 10" tube pan. Using a rubber spatula, smooth and level top of cake. Gently tap the pan against the kitchen counter to remove any large air bubbles. Bake for 50 to 55 minutes or until cake springs back when lightly touched. Immediately invert pan. Cool Completely (about 1 hour). To remove cake, run a knife against the sides of the pan. Turn out on a plate. Then run the knife in one swift motion around the base of the pan. Allow the cake to gently fall onto the plate. Glaze cooled cake.
  • 4. Beat butter and powdered sugar until smooth. Add orange peel and orange juice. Beat mixture until blended. Drizzle glaze over cooled cake.
