In a large bowl whisk the eggs with sugar until smooth and pale.

Add orange zest (from 1/2 orange), freshly squeezed juice from 2 oranges and softened butter. Mix.

Sift in the flour and baking powder (mix these two ingredients beforehand) and mix using electric mixer.

Pour the batter into a loaf tin lined with baking paper (watch our video how to line cake tins.)

Bake in a preheated oven (190⁰C for 1 hour or until an inserted skewer comes out clean).

When ready, take out from the oven and let it cool down a bit before transferring onto a wired rack to cool completely.

Serve with butter, jam or honey and your favorite cup of tea/coffee.
