Marie-Claude’s Orange Cake

Ingredients

• 3/8 cup vegetable oil
• 1 cup white sugar
• 2 eggs
• 1/2 cup plain yogurt
• 2 oranges, zested and juiced
• 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder

Directions

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

In a medium bowl, mix together the vegetable oil, sugar and eggs. Stir in yogurt and orange zest. Combine the flour and baking powder; stir into the mixture just until blended. Pour the dough into a greased 9×13 inch baking pan.

Bake for 30 minutes in the preheated oven, or until a knife inserted into the cake comes out clean. Poke holes in the cake with a knife, and pour the juice from the oranges over the cake slowly until it has all been absorbed.
