FRENCH YOGURT CAKE WITH MARMALADE GLAZE



French Yogurt Cake With Marmalade Glaze image

In France, this cake is usually served with a little sweetened crème fraiche, but it lends itself to other toppings as well. Fresh soft fruit, like sliced peaches or plums, is a natural with this as is berries with a touch of sugar. And, because the cake is plain and just a little tangy from the yogurt, it pairs happily with lemon cream, curd or mousse and is delicious with chocolate mousse or chocolate sauce.

Time 1h20m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup ground almonds (or, if you'd prefer, omit the almonds and use another 1/2 cup all-purpose flour)
2 teaspoons baking powder
Pinch of salt
1 cup sugar
Grated zest of 1 lemon
1/2 cup plain yogurt
3 large eggs
1/4 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 cup flavorless oil, such as canola or safflower
1/2 cup lemon marmalade, strained, for glazing the top (optional)
1 teaspoon water, for glazing the top (optional)

Steps:

  • Getting ready: Center a rack in the oven and preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Generously butter an 8 1/2-x-4 1/2-inch loaf pan, place the pan on a lined baking sheet and set aside. Whisk together the flour, ground almonds, if you're using them, baking powder and salt and keep near by as well.
  • Put the sugar and zest in a medium bowl and, working with your fingertips, rub the zest into the sugar until the sugar is moist and aromatic. Add the yogurt, eggs and vanilla to the bowl and whisk vigorously until the mixture is very well blended. Still whisking, stir in the dry ingredients, then switch to a large rubber spatula and fold in the oil. You'll have a thick, smooth batter with a slight sheen. Scrape the batter into the pan and smooth the top.
  • Slide the baking sheet into the oven and bake 35 to 40 minutes for the round cake or 50 to 55 minutes, or until the cake begins to come away from the sides of the pan; it will be golden brown and a knife inserted into the center of the cake will come out clean. Transfer the pan to a rack, cool for 5 minutes, then run a blunt knife between the cake and the sides of the pan. Unmold and cool to room temperature right-side up.
  • To make the glaze: Put the marmalade in a small pot or a microwave-safe bowl, stir in the teaspoon of water and heat (on the range or in the microwave oven) until the jelly is hot and liquefied. Using a pastry brush, gently brush the cake with the glaze.

ORANGE MARMALADE CAKE



Orange Marmalade Cake image

This beautiful, tender, citrus-scented loaf cake filled with bits of candied orange peel is everything you want with your afternoon tea. The key is finding the right marmalade; it needs to be the thick-cut (also known as coarse-cut) marmalade made with bitter oranges, which will be laden with big pieces of peel. Look for the British brands in the international section of your supermarket if the jam aisle lets you down. (And not give up and use the neon orange marmalade that's more like jelly.) Your reward is a fine-grained, not-too-sweet cake that will last for days well-wrapped and stored at room temperature (if you can manage not to eat it up all at once).

Time 1h30m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

215 grams coarse-cut orange marmalade (2/3 cup), divided
12 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened, plus 1/2 tablespoon for glaze, and more for greasing pan
150 grams granulated sugar (3/4 cup)
2 teaspoons grated lime zest
1/2 teaspoon grated orange zest
3 large eggs, at room temperature
2 tablespoons fresh orange juice
190 grams all-purpose flour (1 1/2 cups)
7 grams baking powder (1 1/2 teaspoons)
3 grams fine sea salt (3/4 teaspoon)
30 grams confectioners' sugar (4 tablespoons)

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. Coarsely chop any extra-large chunks of peel in the marmalade. Grease a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan.
  • In the bowl of an electric mixer, beat together softened butter, sugar, lime zest and orange zest until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Beat in eggs, one at a time, until incorporated. Beat in 1/3 cup marmalade and the orange juice.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder and salt. Fold dry ingredients into wet until just combined.
  • Scrape batter into prepared pan. Bake until surface of cake is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center emerges clean, 50 to 55 minutes. Remove from oven and transfer pan to a wire rack. Cool 10 minutes; turn cake out of pan and place on rack right-side up. Place a rimmed baking sheet under rack to catch the glaze.
  • Heat remaining 1/3 cup marmalade in a small pot over low heat until melted; whisk in confectioners' sugar and 1/2 tablespoon butter until smooth. Slather warm glaze over top of cake, allowing some to drizzle down the sides. Cool completely before slicing.

Tips:

  • Use fresh oranges for the best flavor. Oranges that are in season will have the sweetest and most flavorful juice and zest.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in a tough cake. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. This will ensure that the cake is cooked through.
  • Let the cake cool completely before glazing it. This will help the glaze to set properly.
  • If you don't have marmalade, you can use another citrus glaze. A simple glaze made with lemon juice and sugar would be a good substitute.

Conclusion:

This Orange French Yogurt Cake with Marmalade Glaze is a delicious and easy-to-make cake that is perfect for any occasion. The cake is moist and flavorful, with a delicate orange flavor. The marmalade glaze adds a touch of sweetness and tartness that perfectly complements the cake. Whether you are serving it for breakfast, brunch, or dessert, this cake is sure to be a hit.
