Ingredients:
1 cup of freshly squeezed orange juice (juice from 3-4 oranges)
5 eggs
2 cups of flour, sifted
1 tsp of baking powder
2 cups of sugar
1 cup of canola oil

 

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Squeeze the oranges until you have 1 cup of freshly squeezed orange juice.

Grease a tube pan and lightly coat with flour.

In a bowl, add the baking powder to the flour and blend well with a wooden spoon.

In a separate bowl, with a mixer, beat the egg yolks, sugar and oil until well blended. To this, add the juice, flour and baking powder. Beat ingredients until a smooth batter is formed.

In a another separate bowl, beat the eggs whites until stiff peaks form.

With a spatula, fold the egg whites into the egg yolk / flour mixture until all ingredients are well blended.

Pour the batter into the tube pan and bake for approximately 1 hour or until baked. When cooled remove from tube pan and place on cake plate. Optional: sprinkle some powdered sugar on top.
