If you follow us on Instagram @rolledindough you may have seen a sneak peak photo of this lovely orange poppyseed cake this past Friday. You may have also learned about my love for Friday’s.
I cherish the Fridays I get to be home and not shooting a wedding (don’t get me wrong, I love shooting these beautiful weddings!). What I especially love is those Friday mornings where we rush to finish the laundry, cleaning, errands, and a few home projects.
In between all these tasks I get to enjoy a little cooking and baking. Music playing in the background and the chopping, mixing, and tasting begins. This Friday we were invited for Shabbat dinner. One of my go to cakes is the Orange Poppyseed cake by Kosher by Gloria with a few changes. The best part, you can make its non-dairy!
Oh and did I mention it takes 10 minutes to make and about 70 minutes to bake? Home easy is that. I have the cake in the oven while I start cooking.
If I don’t have orange juice I use water and add more of the orange extract for flavor and smell. This recipe makes one small cake (8 inches) and regular baking pan (10 inches). You may make a large cake. However, I love making two. If we are invited I keep the small one at home for our morning coffee. If we have people over I send them home with the small cake. No one ever turns that down!
