Chef and Sunday Times Magazine columnist Clodagh McKenna Herbert shares her recipe for a tea-time favourite, Orange Marmalade Cake. She uses the Bosch CreationLine Stand Mixer to create a light and fluffy sponge with notes of sweet orange and speckles of zesty lime that pairs perfectly with a sticky, sweet marmalade glaze.

Read below to see how you can recreate using Clodagh’s recipe and the Bosch CreationLine Stand Mixer.

Clodagh McKenna stands at a rustic kichen counter. She leans on a white Bosch CreationLine Stand Mixer. In front of her, there is a cake and a bowl full of oranges.

Ingredients:

220g good quality thick cut orange marmalade

Roughly chopped 180g unsalted butter, softened, plus 1⁄2 tablespoon for glaze, and more for greasing pan

150g caster sugar

Zest of 2 limes

Zest and juice of 1 orange

3 large eggs

190g plain flour

11⁄2 tsp baking powder

Good pinch of sea salt

30g icing sugar

Method:

1. Pre-heat the oven to 180C and grease a 2-pint loaf tin.

2. In the bowl of the Bosch CreationLine Stand Mixer, beat together the softened butter, sugar, lime zest and orange zest until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Add in the eggs, one by one, until incorporated. Next add half of the marmalade and the juice of the orange.

3. Slowly tip the flour, baking powder and salt into batter and beat together until combined.

4. Tip the batter into the prepared pan. Bake in the pre-heated oven until the surface of cake is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center emerges clean, 50 to 55 minutes. Remove from oven and transfer to a wire rack to cool for 10 minutes. Then turn the cake out of pan and place on the cooling rack, and allow to cool completely.

5. Heat the remaining marmalade in a small pot over a low heat until melted, whisk in the icing sugar and 1⁄2 tablespoon of butter until smooth, about 5 minutes. Drizzle the warm marmalade glaze over the top of the cake, allowing some to drizzle down the sides.

6. Cool completely before slicing.
