This recipe for an Orange Drizzle Cake (Vegan) is the perfect accompaniment to a relaxing Sunday spent reading and listening to music. The zesty orange flavours pair perfectly with the fluffy sponge cake.
You've heard all about Lemon Drizzle Cake (I even have a recipe for one!) but Orange Drizzle Cake is just as tasty and makes a nice change from the standard loaf cake. I've recently discovered that adding a tablespoon of dairy free yogurt to my vegan cake recipes really helps make the batter stick together well and prevents a crumbly cake, so make sure you don't skip this step!

Ingredients
Yield: 1 Loaf Cake
Ingredients
- 100g Dairy Free Butter
- 200g Caster Sugar
- 275g Self Raising Flour
- 1 Tsp Baking Powder
- 1 Orange (Zest)
- 1 Orange (Juice)
- 125ml Dairy Free Milk
- 1 Tbsp Dairy Free Yogurt (I use coconut yogurt)
- 175g Icing Sugar
- 1 Orange (Juice)
- 1 Orange (Zest)
- Preheat your oven to 180˚c. Line a loaf tin.
- Beat the butter and sugar until soft, then fold in the flour and baking powder.
- Stir in the orange zest and juice, then slowly add the milk and yogurt until a smooth batter is made. (Note - you made need a little extra milk, just add it gradually until a nice smooth batter is formed)
- Pour the mixture into the loaf tin and bake for 30-40 minutes, until a skewer inserted in the cake comes out clean.
- Allow the cake to cook in the tin for 15 minutes, then transfer to cool completely on a cooling rack.
- Once fully cooled, prepare the icing by mixing together the icing sugar and half the juice of an orange.
- Begin by pricking the cake with a toothpick, then pour over the juice of half an orange.
- Spoon the icing on top of the cake, spreading to cover the whole cake.
- Sprinkle on the orange zest, then leave the icing to set.
