Oven Temp ~ 375°
Baking Time ~ 35-40 Min.
Pan Type ~ 8 inch round pan |
Preheat oven, brush
bottom and sides of pan with oil; line bottom with a round of wax or
parchment paper, and brush paper with oil.
In a large bowl, whisk together
oil, eggs, 1 cup sugar, and orange juice until smooth. Add flour, cornmeal,
baking powder, salt, and orange zest; whisk gently to combine.
Pour batter into prepared pan; sprinkle top evenly with remaining 1/3 cup
sugar (topping will be thick). Bake until cake begins to pull away from
sides of pan and a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
Cool in pan 20 minutes. Run a knife around edge of cake; invert cake
gently onto a plate, and remove parchment paper. Re-invert cake onto a rack
to cool completely. Serve with orange segments, if desired.
