How to Make Orange Cardamom Date Cake
- Preheat the oven to 350°F and position the rack in the center.
- Prepare your cake pan by brushing with olive oil, lining with parchment, and dusting with flour.
- Whisk together flour, kosher salt, baking powder, and baking soda in a medium bowl.
- In a large bowl, combine granulated sugar, cardamom, and eggs; beat until thick and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Slowly drizzle in olive oil while mixing.
- Add half of the orange zest, fresh orange juice, and milk to the egg mixture; beat until smooth.
- Mix in the dry flour mixture until a uniform batter forms with no dry streaks.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan, sprinkle the top with remaining granulated sugar, and bake for 40-45 minutes or until a skewer comes out clean.
- Cool the cake in the pan for 30 minutes before inverting onto a plate to cool completely.
- Dust the cooled cake with sifted confectioners' sugar and sprinkle with fresh orange zest before serving.
