Usually, when there are oranges at home, they don't last long enough to be used in cooking. But this time, I managed to make a soft marble cake flavored with this round citrus fruit.
Preheat the oven to 180°C. Grease and flour a loaf pan.
Separate the egg whites from the yolks. Retrieve the zest and juice of the orange.
Place the cooled melted butter and powdered sugar in a mixing bowl. Mix using a wooden spoon. Add the egg yolks, milk, flour, and baking powder. Mix again.
In a second bowl, whip the egg whites until stiff peaks form, then fold them into the previous mixture.
Separate the dough into two parts: add cocoa to one part, and orange juice and zest to the other.
In the loaf pan, alternate pouring the cocoa batter and the orange batter.
Bake for 40 to 45 minutes in the oven (the tip of a knife should come out clean). Let it cool for a few minutes before unmolding, then completely on a rack before enjoying.
To finish, if it is not consumed right away, wrap it in cling film while it is still warm to keep it moist.
