Orange Cranberry Cornmeal Cake

Orange cranberry cornmeal cake with whole wheat flour and Soyabean flour.
A very easy to make, soft, moist and delicious orange flavoured cake with dried cranberry.

I have used nutritious cornmeal in the cake. Not only easy to digest it has also Cancer-Fighting Properties.
Cornmeal has iron, zinc, niacin, potassium, phosphorus, magnesium and even has protein and no cholesterol.

I have made it both with and without Soyabean flour. And with Soyabean flour cake texture is more soft. Both taste great but I loved the texture of Soyabean flour cake. But never make whole cake with Soyabean flour. Always mix it with other flour. Add this protein rich Soyabean flour in your cake and see the difference in texture and taste.

My contribution is this rectangular loaf cake. Which is full of orange flavour and taste is amazing because of dried cranberry. But if you don’t have cranberry then you can use tutti fruity, choco chips or any dry fruits of your choice. You can use refined flour or maida or any flour instead of whole wheat flour, cornmeal and Soyabean flour.

Recipe

Whole wheat flour or atta – 3/4 cup + 1 tablespoon

Cornmeal – 1/2 cup

Soyabean flour – 1/4 cup

Baking powder – 1 teaspoon

Baking soda – 1/2 teaspoon

Orange juice – 1 cup

Orange zest – 1/2 teaspoon

Powdered sugar – 3/4 cup

Oil or butter – 1/3 cup

Vinegar – 1 tablespoon

Vanilla essence – 1 teaspoon

Dried cranberry – 1/4 cup

Method

1. Preheat the oven at 180°.

2. Grease a loaf pan and dust with flour.

3. Mix 1 tablespoon whole wheat flour with cranberry to avoid sinking at the bottom.

4. Sieve whole wheat flour, cornmeal or makke ka atta, soyabean flour, baking powder and soda.

5. In a large bowl whisk orange juice, powdered sugar oil or butter and vinegar. I have used oil.

6. Add orange zest and vanilla. Whisk again.

7. Now add all the dry ingredients gradually. Mix to make a lump free batter.

8. Fold in flour mixed dried cranberry.
Pour the batter into greased and flour dusted loaf pan. Tap the pan gently on your kitchen counter two three times.

Happy baking 😊

Batter Up With Sujata

I am Sujata Roy. A homemaker, a doting mother to two beautiful grown up children, a blogger, a passionate cook and lastly a foodie. Experimenting in the kitchen is what I love and enjoy doing the most. Specially experimenting with vegetarian dishes and egg-less cakes and cookies is what interests me more. My loved ones are fond of vegetarian cuisines, so I have them in my mind whenever I dish out a new recipe. However, I do not limit my experimental cooking to vegetarian recipes only, non-vegetarian recipe ideas are also dished out. Thank you for visiting my blog. Happy Cooking!

  8. Orange is my favourite flavour in cakes though my kids love more of chocolate. This cake has a beautiful color, texture and looks so soft. I am sure it must have been a citrusy treat.
