Equipment
Ingredients
- 9.52 oz (270 g) all-purpose flour
- 1 Tbsp (12 g) baking powder
- 8.80 oz (250 g) granulated sugar
- 3.53 oz (100 g) butter (Softened | At Room Temperature)
- 5 eggs (Large | At Room Temperature)
- 1 oz (28 g) olive oil
- 4 blood orange zest (From 4 blood oranges)
- 2.65 oz (75 g) Blood Orange juice (From 4 blood oranges)
- food coloring (Orange + Red)
Instructions
- Line a muffin tin with parchment paper and set aside. NOTE: For this recipe, I used my Geo Tray placed on top of a medium perforated baking sheet. Set aside.
- Preheat oven to 340F/170C.
BLOOD ORANGE CAKE PREPARATION
- In a mixing bowl, whisk the all-purpose flour together with the baking powder. Set aside.9.52 oz all-purpose flour, 1 Tbsp baking powder
- In a separate mixing bowl, cream the softened butter together with the granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Beat in the eggs, then add the olive oil, blood orange zest, blood orange juice and a red/orange colorant. Mix until combined.3.53 oz butter, 8.80 oz granulated sugar
- Fold the flour/baking powder into the batter until there are no more pockets of flour. NOTE: Do not over mix.5 eggs, 1 oz olive oil, 4 blood orange zest, 2.65 oz Blood Orange juice, food coloring
- Pour the batter into your muffin tin and use your spatula to flatten the edges. You may place a silicone baking sheet on top for the muffin rise flat. NOTE: Here I used my medium Bonmat.
BAKE!
- Bake for 12 minutes at 340F/170C. (Every oven heats differently, monitor your muffins from 10 minutes). It is ready when the toothpick inserted comes out clean or with little to no crumbs.
- Once your Blood Orange Muffins are out of the oven, remove the silicon mat right away and let it cool down for about 10 minutes before demolding on top of a cooling rack. Enjoy & Bon Appétit!
- N.B. This cake is best enjoyed the day of. However, you can store it wrapped at room temperature up to 3 days.
