Soaked orange muffin

If you are partial to oranges, this cupcake will definitely appeal to you. It is soft, porous, delicate and moist. To soak the cake, we will prepare a syrup with orange peel - this mixture penetrates well into the airy crumb and softens the crust, the cake turns out to be very juicy and rich. The cake is especially good on the second day - its texture stabilizes, the citrus accent becomes more solid and pronounced.

Ingredients

Cooking process

step 1 out of 11
Prepare the orange juice and zest right away. Rinse oranges with hot water to enhance juice production and wipe dry with a towel. Using a fine grater or a special knife, remove the zest from both citrus fruits. It is important to remove only the thin top orange layer. If you remove the white layer "at the same time", the zest will taste bitter. Squeeze juice from the orange pulp, if there are seeds, discard them. We measure out one glass of juice.
step 2 out of 11
Break eggs into a separate bowl. We begin to beat them with a mixer at low speed, gradually increasing the speed. We achieve a lush light foam. Beating eggs is the key to making a cake dough: if they are beaten well, the crumb of the product will turn out to be correct.
step 3 out of 11
Add granulated sugar and vanilla sugar to the beaten eggs. We continue to beat until thick foam. It is advisable to dissolve all sugar crystals.
step 4 out of 11
Put the softened butter to the resulting egg-sugar foam and continue beating until a homogeneous mass is obtained.
step 5 out of 11
Next, pour in a glass of orange juice and add orange zest, mix.
step 6 out of 11
Sift the flour together with the baking powder and pour it into a bowl with the egg-orange mixture. Mix everything together in a circular motion from top to bottom with a spatula until a homogeneous dough is obtained.
step 7 out of 11
Preheat the oven to a temperature of 180 degrees. Grease the baking dish with a small amount of odorless vegetable oil and sprinkle with flour. Alternatively, you can line the pan with oiled parchment to make it easier to remove the finished cake. If the mold is silicone, then you do not need to lubricate it. Put the orange dough into the prepared form. We align. The cupcake increases in volume during baking by about a third, so the form should not be filled to the top.
step 8 out of 11
We put the mold with the dough in an already hot oven on the middle level and bake for forty to fifty minutes. The product rises, turns brown, and a crack appears in the center. At the end of baking, check the readiness of the cake with a toothpick by sticking it into the center of the product: if the stick comes out dry, then baking can be completed.
step 9 out of 11
We take the finished cake out of the oven and leave it to cool right in the mold.At the same time, we prepare the syrup for impregnation. Pour water in the specified amount into a saucepan, add granulated sugar and orange zest. Place the saucepan on the stove and bring the contents to a boil. Cook the syrup until the zest becomes transparent and the liquid boils down to a honey color and becomes thicker. The fire is medium, do not forget to stir all the time.
step 10 out of 11
Pour the cooled cake evenly with warm syrup, let it completely absorb and cool. Then remove from the mold and transfer to a serving dish.
step 11 out of 11
The cake that has completely cooled down after soaking can already be cut into portions and served. If the cake "survives" until tomorrow, you can be sure that it has become even tastier.
Bon Appetit!
