Categories     Desserts

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

3 sticks unsalted butter, softened
3 cups granulated sugar
6 large eggs
8 oz sour cream, or cream cheese
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
½ teaspoon orange extract
3 cups self-rising flour
1 teaspoon kosher salt
2 tablespoons all purpose flour
nonstick cooking spray, for greasing
2 ½ cups powdered sugar, sifted
5 tablespoons milk
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 lemon, zested
1 lime, zested
1 orange, zested
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Arrange a rack in the center of the oven. Preheat the oven to 300°F (150°C).
  • Make the cake: In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment (or in a large bowl with an electric hand beater), cream the butter and sugar on low speed until smooth, 3-4 minutes. Scrape down the sides of the bowl, then add the eggs, 1 at a time, beating to incorporate between each addition. Scrape down the sides of the bowl again, then add the sour cream, vanilla, and orange extract and beat to incorporate.
  • Sift the self-rising flour and salt into a large bowl.
  • Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, 1 cup at a time, and mix on low speed to incorporate, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
  • Grease a 14½-cup Bundt pan evenly with nonstick spray. Evenly sprinkle the all-purpose flour into the pan and rotate until evenly coated, then tap out the excess.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Shake and drop the pan onto the counter a couple times to release any air bubbles. Transfer to the oven and bake for 1 hour and 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Remove from the oven and let cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then invert the cake from the pan and let cool for at least 30 minutes more.
  • Make the glaze: In a large bowl, combine the powdered sugar, milk, melted butter, vanilla, lemon zest, lime zest, and orange zest and whisk until smooth.
  • Pour the glaze over the cooled cake, then slice and serve.
  • Enjoy!

THE MOST ADAPTABLE ONE-BOWL CORNMEAL POUNDCAKE



The Most Adaptable One-Bowl Cornmeal Poundcake image

Is it cake time yet? Cake is comforting in a way that a tart or cookies are not, and this is especially true of loaf cakes, which you can convince yourself is just like bread. Slices of it fit in the toaster, so really, what's the difference? This citrus-scented cornmeal number is endlessly adaptable - use whatever fat you have on hand, dairy or light, bright flavoring you have on hand - and requires just one bowl. It's wonderful in slices, but extra nice toasted and buttered for breakfast.

Provided by Melissa Clark

Categories     breakfast, cakes, dessert

Time 1h

Yield 1 (9-inch) loaf

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup/200 grams granulated sugar
An orange, lime or lemon (optional)
1/2 cup/120 milliliters liquid fat (olive oil, coconut oil, sunflower oil, melted butter, whatever you've got)
2 eggs
1/2 cup/120 milliliters plain yogurt, buttermilk, sour cream, or 1/2 cup whole milk mixed with 1 tablespoon lemon juice
A dash of vanilla or almond extract, or use brandy (optional)
1/4 teaspoon grated nutmeg (optional)
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 cup/60 grams cornmeal
1 1/4 cup/160 grams all-purpose flour

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees, and grease and flour a 9-inch loaf pan. (Or grease and line it with parchment.)
  • In a big bowl, add the sugar, and grate the zest from the orange, lemon or lime into the bowl. If you need a little aromatherapy, work the zest into the sugar with your fingers. (This technique is supposed to infuse the citrus into the sugar.)
  • Add the fat, eggs, and yogurt to the bowl, along with the extract and nutmeg, if you like.
  • Whisk in the salt, baking soda, baking powder and cornmeal. Once smooth, whisk in flour.
  • Scrape the batter into the prepared pan, and bake for 45 minutes to an hour. Let it (mostly) cool in the pan. Then slice off a thick piece, butter it and let yourself be soothed.
