Orange Blender Cake Recipe

by

There’s something deeply satisfying about a cake that looks bakery perfect, tastes like sunshine, and comes together in a blender. This orange blender cake is one of those genius recipes I always go back to. It’s moist, fragrant, and packed with citrusy goodness. Whether I’m baking it for breakfast, as a tea time treat, or a quick dessert, it always earns compliments. Plus, it’s made with simple pantry ingredients and zero fuss no mixer, no special tools, and minimal cleanup. This is the kind of recipe you’ll want to save and repeat.

Why I Love This Orange Blender Cake

    • One-bowl magic: The blender does most of the work for you
    • Fresh flavor: Real orange juice and zest create bright, natural citrus notes
    • No butter, no problem: Oil keeps the cake moist and tender
  • Easy cleanup: Minimal bowls and no mixer required
  • Perfect for any time of day: Great with coffee, tea, or even as a birthday cake

Ingredients

    • 3 eggs
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon vinegar
  • 1 and 1/4 cups (250g) sugar
  • 1/2 cup (120ml) oil
  • 50ml freshly squeezed orange juice
  • Zest of 2 large oranges
  • 2 and 1/4 cups (300g) all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Directions

  • Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and grease a 9-inch round cake pan. You can also line the bottom with parchment for easy release.
  • Step 2: In a blender, add eggs, vanilla, vinegar, sugar, oil, orange juice, and orange zest. Blend until smooth and frothy.
  • Step 3: In a separate bowl, sift together flour, cornstarch, baking powder, and salt. This helps avoid clumps and gives the cake a fine crumb.
  • Step 4: Gradually add the dry mixture to the blender, pulsing gently until just combined. Avoid over-blending so the cake stays fluffy.
  • Step 5: Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 30 to 35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Step 6: Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Dust with powdered sugar or drizzle with orange glaze if desired.
