Orange Polenta Cake

Sweet and Tangy...

Ingredients:

250g Unsalted Butter
250g Caster Sugar
4 Large Eggs
140g Polenta
200g Plain Flour
2 Tsp Baking Powder
Zest and Juice of 2 Orange (Less than 100ml for the glaze)

FOR THE ORANGE GLAZE:

100ml Orage Juice
100g Caster sugar

Method:

1. Heat the oven to 160C. Line the base and sides of a round 23cm cake tin with baking parchment.Cream the butter and sugar together, until light and fluffy. Add the eggs, one at a time, thoroughly. Once the mixture is combined, add all the dry ingredients and the zest and juice after you have measured off 100ml for the glaze.

2. Transfer the mixture to the tin, spread evenly, then cook for about 45 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the centre of the cake, comes out clean. Remove from the oven and turn out onto the rack to cool.

3. To make the glaze, put the juice and sugar in a medium saucepan, and bring to the boil. Let it simmer for 5 minutes, then remove from the heat and allow to cool. Drizzle the orange glaze over the top of the cooled cake. Serve with sour cream.
